The y-axis on that machine is left to right. If this is the axis you are having a problem with....check the motor. I have had to tighten the tension on it before. If you notice you lose steps after running for a while then this is going to be the iss

x and y are the same...just change switches. t and z are the same...just change switches. The voltages on the cards are different(x/y same--t/z same)....i do have a procedure somewhere that allows you to make an x/y card into a t/z card. good luck

Good job.... Sorry i didnt see this post...some of us were busy snow tubing over the weekend...haha. Many times over the years....the rubber belt inside the feeder will deposit material inside. Sometimes it ends up on the sensors and blocks the ligh

Not many people use the vision on spin failure for 0402 parts. I would focus on repeatably picking the part from the feeder. If you insist on using vision then maybe you can take a permanent marker and darken the nozzle tip. Dont use a sharpie as it

Quad/Tyco should have some old 'q-tips' on programming help for that type of board on a 'c-series machine'that i wrote a long time ago. I cant remember anymore exactly how to help you but they should have some paperwork on doing it. It also is a 'sli

Some things to try.....keep in mind it has been over 10 years since i programmed one of those machines. 1. Tep Vision is what you should be using. I think it was called tep vpass in older software. 2. Maybe try goto 0 instead of goto 1. 3. Make sure

I dont know what kind of feeders your using for 0402 but it matters. It must be repeatable. It also sounds like your feeder z height is wrong. Test pick on the feeder and change the z until it just starts to pick it up and your z will be set. One oth

Here are a couple of things to look at. 1. Watch the machine run....and if it misses a part....make sure it doesnt blow out the next part being presented. Sometimes the air pressure is too high and the vacuum verify will blow the part out of the poc

If you have an older machine that has cyberoptics you might want to try to put a pickup theta of 90. I believe there was a problem with that type of part. Also use non-leaded alignment and scan the part near the top of it. As for 0402 parts.........
