I am looking for a machine to put parts on tape and reel. I am supplied with parts from customers that are on short cut strips for production prototype boards. I would like to put these onto feeders, but they need to be re-taped first. Is there is a

Changing the pitch on the newer feeders is a little bit different and involves adjusting the location of a sensor. Where we lose the parts is at change-over. There are some reels that we might put on and take off a feeder 20 times before the reel is

Hi All; Does anyone have feedback on the reel/feeder storage retreival systems they have out there. We are looking at some different ones, but our shelving systems seem to do a better job. I concerned with downtime on these units and only one per

OK Jon, now let me speak hypothetically. We are in agreeance that bulk feeding can save money through increased machine up time. If this cost savings alone could pay for the bulk feeders (it is just a matter of time before it would) and the minimum

Hi all, I want to shoot a question out to you guys/gals. Do you require your operators to get tape and reel components verified by someone else before they put a new reel on the machine? We always do a first piece verification of the initial set-up,

Buddy system at a minimum. In fact it does no good to verify your "stock" number. You need to verify the manufacturers numbers as-well. And even then, reels do get mis-labeled. I seem to remember a story of a major CM supplier for a Big 3 car mak

Pete C We do bake our tray parts. I am familiar with the ipc specs. The problem is for example: a level 4 component can only be out a total of 72 hrs before rebake is required. If this is a tube or reel part, the 125c bake temp that is recommended wi

Positive side: Less change overs, increased productivity 1/2 booking in & replenishement functions Negative: If you have more than one SMT line,common part numbers & a MRP system it may tell you you can run 3 jobs at once with 1 reel Some machin

Good day, Is there on the market any machine independent barcode reading system? We have some placement machines with build-in barcode reading system. When operator changes the reel with components he/she checks reel with barcode scanner. Some of th
