Hi, Can you tell what model system this is for? Hamamatsu tubes are not easy to come by as a rule unless they are new. How much are you looking to spend? The new 130kV Hama tubes go for ~$25K. Are you sure that the controller and the tube are bo

Don't know if you can do it on a MyData, but I have found that I lower the rate of failed pickups on our machine by altering the placement order of devices. Specifically insisting it does not attempt to pick sequential parts from the same lane. Of co

The tubes don't fit the feeders? I have a Contact Systems vibratory feeder base on my CSM84. It comes with 8 lanes of SOIC only. Well, I use a wider variety of the small chips, from SSOP to wide SO's. The feeder base has some threaded holes in th

We have the same issues with QFN's on reels being cost prohibitive, so we also have to deal with tubes. We have had some luck with using a modified tube ran down (almost to the pick position) the channel of a belt feeder, assuming the QFN tube/channe

John, As a supplier of squeegee blades, we ship them out in clear plastics tubes at the approximate length of the blade itself. The ends of the tube have simple slide-on end caps. After visiting many customers sites, I've found that most of them k

Even with the best of intentions, some lots of components just last too long. Recognize that controlled environment storage is only a delaying tactic. So when the piper come to play and baking becomes inevitable, we "repackage" components in tubes
