If you run a TH parts, X-ray is needed in 95% of the cases. AOI will be your SMT criteria except bottom terminated components(need X-ray). After equipment, you should still have 4X 6X 10X 20X optical checks based on part size. Building PCBAs without

We just went through a similar issue with our MY12E. Make sure your Midas vacuum system is working, check your Midas Z friction. Also verify the Centering unit centering band. You can swap your MOTZ and MOTC to rule out the card. The tool install t

The yamaha feeders need leader tape to function - so if you're using cut reel components you'll lose 3 or 4 just on set up alone. Run-time attrition is harder to help with as machine setup and calibration, condition of nozzles/feeders, ability of ope

I have been involved with our Selective Soldering process for 15 years or more. Using ACE Protech machines and now a Juki. Our first ACE machine replaced 4 hand solder operators easily, allowing them to work on other projects. The machine isn't "set

The single most common problem I have seen is not always having ready to run error free kits for SMT waiting at all times. It eats into SMT production a lot more than most people think when there is even a single question about a part. At one OEM we

Thanks guys. Chatted with Ekra (Irv / Rudi) and we have nailed it down to the table LEFT side motor and it is specifically the coupler. As I turn the coupler by hand, there is some internal component under the coiled spring that makes a snapping soun

This video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fG9kydsUxR4&pp=ygUXc210IHNhbXN1bmcgcHJvZ3JhbW1pbmc%3D shows programming the parts in the step screen with the part overlay on the board. Is this a newer feature for the SM320, or is this hidden somewhe

Thanks for your comments. The table aligns fine but just makes the whining / ticking sound when using the 'REFERENCE' command. In this command the table moves more than the live 'AUTOMATIC' mode. The motors are working fine to align the PCB & stenci

Has anyone tried this on a my9/12/15/19? I have a 21.4mm tall component. Any drawbacks about doing this permanently? Max component height is 15 mm as standard but 22 mm with a few modifications. Board edge clearance is 3.2 mm. The top board edge

There's a chance the vision system is seeing part of head 1 as it looks at the component. We get that with older nozzles on Philips equipment ( the black coating has worn to a silver shine ) and the component camera sees the nozzle tip, which annoyin
