The Agilis feeders perform as advertised after having them in use for several months. They significantly reduce the time it takes to load and unload feeders and don't require maintenance and calibration (unlike traditional feeders and the older Mydat

I have had experience with both companies. If you are doing contract work and get you parts and boards in a box, the Mydata does a fine job of teaching a board on the machine. Quad's strengths are in their software and the ability to automatically

Mydata and Contact Systems make good machines, but the QSV from Quad has more feeders space, a better smart feeder systems and works much better as an in-line system. Although Mydata and Contact can put their machines in-line, the cost is substantia

If you are running a Mydata machine why don't you try one of the new stick magazines they offer. These magazines shake rather than vibe and the motion is controlled by the package dimensions. Call your rep and see if you can "borrow" one to try out.

We are a small OEM that also does EMS for local companies. We run our SMT line 10 hours/day 5 days/week and average 2 changeovers per day. We are using a MyData machine in our line. With the proper mix of magazines and feeders, changeover times ca

Interesting. What changes in 1 hour? Is there any connection between the error and feeder/magazine change, load reload? Is there any other factor observed in the hour of work that is abnormal?

The TM magazines will work exactly the same on the newer machines, as they did on your TP-11. The MY100, MY200, and MY300 series machines are all available with 2 heads, Midas and Hydra.

Grant, Yes they do get broken by the operator or whom ever is loading or unloading the feeder stick pulling the tape through the feeder and the component pocket will snag the tip of the plow and bend it so that the tip ends up breaking off making
