Hi Wayne, First, all Gem machines including Topaz, TopazX, Sapphire, etc... have the same feeders. You can use either FV feeders (which were the ones when Topaz was introduced), or CL feeders (which came when Topaz X was introduced). Both types of f

I was wondering what the difference between "Y" type feeders and "HM" type feeders where? Also I understand that the "FV" type feeders are pneumatic rather than manual advance, what is the purpose for pneumatic advance if manual works just fine? Are

About 12 years ago, this forum was hugely helpful in guiding me to get a Philips CSM84, with no vision. (That might have been a mistake.) Now, I'm moving to smaller parts, especially TSSOP and QFP with 0.5 mm pitch, and the CSM just isn't accurate

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

Hi Well as the feed movement is effected by means of a spring return force there really isn't that much to do apart from checking the spring tension and keeping the friction surfaces of the ratchet mechanisms of the feed sprocket and the top foil pu

The feeders on the CSM84 actually feed the tapes forward by the force of a spring. On the 8mm and 12mm feeders the spring is loaded directly by the force of the push rod on the placement head. With the larger tapes like 16mm and 24mm, a stronger sp
