If memory serves me right, if you are test picking a component which will be served to the machine via an LCS the 'pick position' will automatically set itself to feeder slot 1. If you change this to something more central (I used to use location 4

Ahh, yes. Just about the same time you replied someone else I asked said the same thing! I didn't realize that you had to put the part on by hand for the vision test. In the book it says to leave the feeder position set to the default setting. Fu

I have been using my topaz X for about 4 years now and I feel that I am fairly knowledgeable about it, at least the functions of it that I use... I am trying to use the LCS to place some qfp chips on a new product and I have set the whole thing up t

Hello Bob, we changed the nozzle z parameter until we got limit errors and backed up 1 mil. There was a slight reduction in the limit errors on the pickup of the component but it is still a problem. With the mod code we adjust the soft z height to ab

If its a tall part and you are trying to scan it lower than 200 or so...you can have this problem (limit error). Thinking of things to look at.....Is your z-rod spring sticking? Push up on it and it should spring back with NO hesitation...if it does.

We have been having a recurring error on one of our Quad 4Cs. When it picks up the first of 8 47uF SMT capacitor it stops with a limit error. If we do 2 consecutive function 30s, the problem goes away until the next board. The first function 30 re

Wipe off your linear scales and clean your quadalign lense.

If the feeders that you are having problems with have tall parts in them.....and these are the ones the machine is stopping on.....check to see that you are not scanning higher than what your function 30 nozzle height is. In other words...if your fun

I have had similar problems before where the machine will intermittently stop with a limit error. Reset the machine and away it goes. Replacing the ribbon cable that runs from the head (37 pin D-sub)has solved this problem. This cable gets flexed a l

Hi, We have a Quad IVc set up with all picks, placements, and sequence working. I have managed to get through several passes with some pain, mainly from SOT-23 parts, but it is getting better. On occasion, when picking from one of three feeders loc
