Sounds to me like the driver for the tactile is not working. The tactile has three components to it. The first is the switch, the second is the pneumatic up/down actuator and the third is a small motor in the tactile assembly. The motor has a driv

I checked the housing and it can move up and down freely. I went into Cal and also moved it without a problem. The sensors in the digital I/O seem to be fine. I checked the voltage going to the driver card and it seems to be fine. I think I will s

Make sure the housing for the switch can move up and down freely (no lose parts/screws and the lead screw is clean and lubed with some light oil). I've had a tactile housing come loose from the lead screw = limit errors - it should be tight with no

Try to check axis drivers - at the begining should be tactile. When you press RESET look on the screen - is there any change (position send from encoders) ?

Just to clarify, you are talking about the inner black box not driving down and not the pneumatic function that brings the tactile assembly closer to the stencil? Sometimes the pneumatic shafts get slightly bent and the assembly will not retract. T

That AP can paste 0201's and has built in 2D. I would keep it. The AP series "forcers and platens" design is a bit fragile, but reliable and tends to last a long time. My biggest complaint is the cheap air hoses to the 3 forcers. After about 8 ye

Try raising the table in Calibrate mode. Sensor or Tactile connector could be contacting the underside of the rails and overloading the axis. Check for 24V on the Z-axis brake. Check the fuse(F5) and voltage to the driver. Check DIP switch settin
