Look on the serial number on the body of the feeder. If it starts with "W" it is a CP6 feeder. If it starts with "K" it is for the CP7. It really doesn't matter for which machine, it all depends on the bucket style feeder. If the feeder is a bucket s

Correct....if the feeders you purchased have 7" pans then they will work fine on a CP-6 or CP-7. If the pans are 13" and they are truly CP-6 feeders, they won't work on a CP-7. If you need to change out your pans I can help. I have a bunch of 13"

Ok, I went to Fuji one day for a show and asked a tech on why when I use my Vibra feeders I can't keep em running for the simple fact they don't advance fast enough for the QP picking sequence. So to let you all know (has helped alot) you go into the

This I have heard from (2) different sources. Fuji feeders for CP series machines are now being counterfeited in China and are being sold as original. They will in all appearences look completely legit in original boxes and with Fuji bar-codes. Once

I've seen 2 types from China, one type was an amazing copy (Fuji supplier's factory back door possibly?) and the other was a cheap copy. The cheap copy was adequately functional, but I wouldn't want to bet on it's long term life.

Interesting Rob. The fake ones that I was told about would fail within minutes as the index wheels would be reduced to metal shavings right away.

I don't think that the ones I encountered were "fake", I think that they were cheap copies - ie. actually meant to work, not just to part someone with their cash - engineered to a price (just a very low one!). It does seem a bit strange to go to the

We recently purchased an old Fuji IP-I placement machine and have been testing 8x4 feeders for 0805 parts, etc. I have opened some of the non-working feeders to replace broken pieces and have noticed that some of the feeders are completely clean ins

Not sure about Fuji but it can be done on Panasonic feeders.
