Hi, Does you ever encounter static in plastic reel?? For a while when you do a production with our machine the component( mostly resistor and capacitor) stay in the pocket of the reel when the feeder peel off. do you have a trick to stop it? Th

We have purchased a similar machine from Manncorp and have had good success. It does check for empty pockets.

Hello Rob, We have reel hangers on our feeders as opposed to "buckets". The reels cannot be removed while the feeder is mounted to the machine. Thus splicing is not currently an option. As mentioned above, we felt that it is easier to remove the f

Apparently the adhesive tape peels off from the joint, which could have some reasons. 1. There should be an overlap of the cover tape, as Cal mentioned. The new cover tape laying over the old by approx. 2mm. I also peel the cover tape a bit off, whi

Hi Greg, Remember, splicing isn't just for when components run out - it's also for when you have to pull a part reel from stock, swap it across machines with different feeders, or when the tape snaps. Cheers, Rob.

The leader tape from Sierra works good for us. But if you have to work only with small strips and you can't affort to lose any parts think of moving them into waffle packs. It depends though if your machine has a tray for that. Regards, Cristina

What was the outcome OrHorti after baking some? In the end we went with a different machine (Fuji NXT) which was able to get the leds out of the reel. After switching we still face a loss of about 0.5% but it is acceptable for now.

Base, You are absolutely correct. This is what I intend to do. In fact, our feeders at one time had reel hangers that would allow for reel removal and thus splicing. Sometimes it is frustrating when people are set in their ways and won't consider

Cheers Greg, It's unusual to have such direct access to manufacturers & their opinions. I'll tell you what really does get us, and splicing doesn't work well on these occaisions - big SMD connectors, requiring deep pocket feeders. You only get m

Thanks for the reply Rob, This we already do. The machine will pick from the most efficient available feeder (assuming multiples of the same part number)...so when you remove the primary it will seemlessly move to the next available. When you re-in
