There are definately patents in force for many feeder assembies. Specific mechanisms like waste tape take-up and sprocket indexing are covered by several patents. Fuji, Pan, Yamaha all have patents on the various aspects of their feeders. Best of

I have just been engaged again in SMT pick-n-place machines. My latest exposure is with Yamaha YV100 and YM84. I have been having some problem on feeders, especially on 1206 reel packages and above. The plastic cover on the reel does not peel off eas

not a user of either machines but I have assessed quite a lot of machines and iineo II ticked every box for me... But like others have said, really depends on what you need to achieve with the machine....if you are an OEM and you have a fair idea of

The encoder on the Y axis motor is almost certainly kaput. Debris from the wear of the motor brushes or whatever else can find its way onto the encoder and give an ever increasing false pulse. The axis will start OK but progressively go out of whack

Some other machines are a lot simpler. Here's how the Philips (mady by Yamaha) CSM84 works. Smaller tape (8 and 12 mm) feeders are all mechanical. A plunger on the head pushes a lever on the feeder at the same time the head comes down. First, the

G'day Marina, Only YM/CSM seies feeders will fit these machines. Feeders were generally prefixed as Y8, Y12 = mechanical advance 8mm, 12mm. There may be some Y16 in existence but I doubt it. HA12, HA16 = air activated 12mm, 16mm. The HA12 could take

I assume that you are referring to the same kind of mechanical feeders (older type) that are used on the Philips (Assembl�on) Topaz as well. First make sure that the right gear pulley spring is set to its stiffest position (the loop at the end of the

Philips is out of this business. They spun off the SMT business as Assembleon America. Their site is partially closed, and I don't know what hoops you have to jump through to become a member. The open part of their site gives no result when you se

I am having second thoughts, because this machine is not an 84VZ. That's the one I would prefer. But, it is still at $520 on eBay! Arrghhhh! Well, in a little over a day I will know one way or the other. Thanks for the info on the equivalent Yam
