I did see the Amistar at NEPCON Texas and it appears to be a fine machine. The multi-heads and vision-on-the-fly is nice. Feeder capacity seems to be a concern, though. Ibelieve it holds 120 8mm feeders and if you purchase a tray sequencer, it takes

Steve, The PD isn't the problem. The QFP240's place fine. It is just that dont pick from cavities 10, 12, 13, and 15. When the sub-robot picks from the other cavities, they place fine. The robot comes down over the above listed cavities, but does

DaveF's request for more data of course is needed to be specific, but here are a few ideas and places to start. If the SMT line is causing the defects you need to identify where on the line the problem is being caused. What we see regularly is mish

For us, no. Pain in the butt, yes. Volume build shops do not have the inherent flexibility that quick turn shops have built into their systems to deal with these problems. I�d speculate that this issue will help LARGE contract shops to rethink the

After a few problems and time constraints on baking moisture sensitive devices, we are looking at solutions to storage rather than going after a rebaking solution. One thing that always bothered me about baking was the oxidation on the lead finish,

Hi Grant, In previous positions I've had experience with the Fuji CP43, CP6, CP642, CP643, CP65, IP3 & QP242. In operating, training and process engineering capacities. Presently, I'm working with 2 SMT lines (in a process engineering capacity) wit

Fuji is the best, but there are other alternatives besides Quad. If you really want to look at Fuji, take a peek at their XP142E series. With "Vision processing on the fly" and a "Mini Turret Head" with 12 placement nozzles it should fit your needs n

Hi, I checked one out in Taiwan recently, and they had two NXT systems on the booth. I think they are very exciting, and being able to change the mounter head and camera, and dual lane is good for through put. However each bay is only 20 x 8mm feed
