I'm updating this thread and replying to the first post in the thread due to the annoying tendency for later posts to get indented to the point that you can only put one or two words per line. Our Rad 5, hit the skids again for the last couple of w

We have a RAD5 and RAD 8, both of which have the Expanded Range Verifier. Has anyone had success verifying the correct value of electrolytic caps? Our machine stops several times a day for a false failure, and Universal isn't much help. Thanks John

If you can, put a pressure tank near the machine. It will help stabalize the air pressure, but only if the compressor is providing enough air in the first place. Throughhole PNP machines tend to take air in big gulps making the pressure go up and dow

Any experience with the encoders and ball screws that drive the stage? We are seeing a pretty large y-drift from the 'top' to the 'bottom' of the board during x-travel. I've tried to measure this using the teach function and the x-drift from the sm
