I would probably try to get my boss to spring for a digital anemometer (air velocity meter) and figure out what my velocity needed to be to get the specified airflow. Then just check it daily before production starts and when it starts to slow down,

This doesn't help the original poster any, but does the Quad have any sensing of what is going on in the feeder? On the pneumatic or mechanical Philips feeders, if the tape jams in the feeder for some reason, the head just keeps tapping the lever an

Hello Bobpan, Thanks for the response. 1. Function 30 gives me a consistent 182-185, even after nozzle changes. I can vary this by changing mod code 15 and I have been advised to aim for 90-110, but it doesn't seem to make any difference so I've go

You're entirely correct. The gold is most likely gone away. [Don't forget you can check if the surface is still solderable with a hand soldering iron.] We're not sure it it will give you the results you seek, but consider using a dye penetrant fai

Sr. Tech, youre absolutely correct that the X-Wagon (pancake) motor is the one which will do final positioning when moving to a programmed position. The X Axis motor in back of the machine is used for rapid traverse of the axis. I was thinking more

Hello All, I've just bought a Quad 4c pick & place machine. It's so close to actually building boards, but just doesn't quite get there. I was wondering if there's somebody out there with experience of these machines that might be able to help...?

Hi folks, I've been bouncing off of MyData technical support for some time on an issue with a MyData machine. Seems that this My9 likes to skip an 0402 placement at a rate of ~ 1000/million. Profile: MyData My9 Mechanical centering Midas only

Well, everything WAS going OK until I started setting up for a board job (40 boards with about 450 components each - many image repeats). We setup 37 feeders with their parts and started defining the pickups and placements. Part #1 is an SOD123 zener
