We did 0402s for years on a GSM. Is this a flexjet or a 4 spindle head? A flexjet is easy with 0402s. The four spindle nozzles are big, you run into issues with knocking already places parts and having to Z zone carefully (and beware repair cycles.)

We can offer several nozzles to assist with the placement of 0402/0201 components in the four-spindle head. We offer the 06MPF along with custom ceramic tipped nozzles. Most of our standard nozzles for this head type are less than $125.00 each. Chec

One of my Universal GSM (1995/ 1996 model) pick and place machines has recently started to drop the nozzle on the reject belt when dropping off a rejected component. I have tried replacing the nozzel holders on the ends of the spindles but with no im

Rob, I know the things are not always as we like them :)....but people should understand that with the equipment you have you can't really work on 0201 jobs, so they shouldn't take any of these. I can design and build a helicopter, if I have the r

Evtimov, I would love to look at a more contemporary machine! Or, jobs that fit better on the machine that we have. However; a. we're a start up, and the GSM was here before I was; and b. we're a start up, in the EMS world, and sometimes, don't get

Assembleon Topaz (many different flavors) or you can pick up an almost new Universal GSM pretty cheap these days. Are you looking for "new" equipment only? What are your requirements and/or features you are looking at/for? Another good machine if

I doubt you will be able to get satisfactory results with 0201. 0402 is another story. When doing 0402 projects, we use only electric (MP) feeders and always at the same feeder slots (feeder teach done for each of them). MPF08 nozzle works fine. Also

Thanks, Deni! We're replacing two 4-spindle GSM's with two GX-11S with Flex3 front and IL4 in the rear. These we plan to use a mix of our pneumatic & 24V feeders as well as high speed feeders as we acquire them. The sellers advised that the 24V kits

I would agree with the advice given by previous poster's. "Buyer Beware" is the rule of the day. Especially when dealing with 3rd. party brokers. Keep an eye out for some of the teir 1 EMS corp's auctions. You can pick up some excellent deals on we
