OK, I forgot to import the new order into the task block builder but that didn't resolve the issue. I decided to reduce the height of the part in the definition from 510 mils (which it is) to 450 mils and it places without a problem. Its strange bec

Couple idears for you: I've got this error when the program is jacked up, specifically component. In particular from what I remember, GSM or Advantis will give that error when a ball grid array with multiple patterns doesn't add up to a perfect mul

I have a strange issue where all 4 spindles of head 1 on my GSM1 are able to place small parts without a problem until the very end of the routine where a large electrolytic aluminum capacitor is placed. The part is successfully picked out of the fee
