Is it the CREE with the soft dome? We had to get specially made nozzles for our SAMSUNG machines to pick up cree LEDs correctly. They are basically rubber tipped. We bought from Count on Tools website.

If you're 100% certain you have the correct nozzle for this package you could check to see if your PnP machine has an option for "Auto Adjust Pickup Position" or something along those lines and try changing it (if it's currently on, try turning it of

I had the same question. We have custom nozzles made by Count on Tools. I believe we found urethane works the best for the silicon domed LEDs. Have you slowed the feed rate down on the feeder? Also adjust the top tape to the back slot on the feeder.

Indeed, stickiness of LED dome varies from batch to batch. We didn't have much success with adjusting pick&mount settings. Also, usage of other nozzle (recommendation from SMT manufacturer) didn't help. Usually, we have a good experience with similar

Try adding blow after mount before head up if your machine lets you. Make sure your placing the part into the solder paste as that will add some holding force as well. If your tips are spring loaded you can do some 0.5mm additional mounting height.

I am mounting 3535 Cree High-power leds with p&p machine. First nozzle picks up the led normally and then it's placed good but after 4-5 times nozzle picks up the led like at an angle. looks like it holds the led from the side edge of the dome.

Hi Chris. Thanks for sharing these details. We are working with Cree XP-G3 LED (3535). We bought urethane nozzle from CoT (recommendation from Cree), but it didn't solve problem of LED sticking to nozzle. Cleaning nozzle with isopropanol (other recom
