Steve Huey is a real MAN. "NO GENDER DISRIMINATION" I competed with him for a few years. He has integrity, smarts, a smile, and honesty. Ruthless none the less. I only dream of the days that UIC's anti competitive practices were those of the days of

I think this licensing thing was a poor decision to begin with. I can understand the reasoning for GenRad to issue a software license, to protect their product against cloning. Why Universal followed could have been caused by the take over and the

Here's what ticks me off by the OEM's extorting registration fees out of customers and refusing to support the used equipment market. You won't get the OEM's to admit it but a large part of their profits are obtained by service and support includin

I have read with interest this string of opinions about support of old machines. I am the service manager of Contact Systems and I deal with customer support every day. Our policy is to treat all owners of Contact machines in an evenhanded way. The w

You teach the corners of the component picked from the previous steps. Just select "PTF RR BTWN RAIL" slot 75 in "feeder teach" and it should move over to the belt.

That's really up to you and for DTF what bank you're using it in so you can reach the pockets for teaching. Obviously easiest to keep them all the same.

Feeder Teach. Then it's the "Slot X,Y feeder teach" in the pulldown menu. That should be the default one, set feeder slot and the PTF as your feeder. If in doubt you can always make a back up in the feeder database as well. Probably a good idea eithe

I use a DTF instead of PTF, but one thing I wondered reading this...Which pocket do you designate as "First Pocket" for your tray in your Feeder.db? Could this be affecting the XY position being returned by the machine? For DTF I use upper left. Shou

So I'm attempting to run feeder teach for my platform tray feeder... but I've got no idea what first point I should teach is... normal is the end pin of the feeder but this is for the ptf conveyor... so I've got no idea. If I just teach each corner
