This sounds like a Quadalign problem. Upon startup the Quadalign system checks runout of the Z-rod and tries to find the tip of the nozzle. It will keep lowering the Z-rod and looking for the tip until it hits it's limit. Check and see if the Quadali

Thanks for the suggestion, Bobpan. I'll start looking for a replacement coax cable. Would we be better off to look for a Quadalign system and replace the Cyberoptic unit? Doug

You may want to clarify how much $$$ you have. If you look at a quad 4C call PPM, I believe they have a windows based operating system now. I think a 4C with some feeders would cost you $5K to $20K depending on condition and feeders. I believe you wa

Quad Systems sells the Samsung product with Quad's patented QuadAlign optics system and Quad feeders as opposed to the mechanical centering system available on the product direct from Samsung. Generally, all optical centering is superior to mechanic

RLM, you have been very helpful! Let me try this on you: We have two IVC's, one with a conveyor and Quadalign, the other with a workholder platform and Cyber-optic. I just ran the first successful assembly on this second system, but the extents had

They have there strong points and weak ones. I have worked with them for the last 5 years and have seen some flakey problems (Cables, feeders, encoders) that will cause you some down time but if you get a good price on a system it might be worth it.

Hello everyone, We recently got a Quad IVc machine with PPM software on it. We are struggling with 0402, as we get plenty QuadAlign failures. We ticked Vision on failure, so that we limit the amount of rejected parts, but on 0402 Vision system gi

| Notice the lack of response to the laser system comment? Unspoken words can say a quite a bit...they don't want to have to address the issue. I wonder why? | Ray Ray and others: I work for Quad. Our optical centering assembly called QuadAlign doe
