One of my 8mm feeders is blinking the red led after the pick-up. With both buttons the motor works as expected (forward/backward), but after the nozzle pick-up the motor moves forward and then the red led blinks. pressing the buttons the green led l

Commponent pitch programming is performed via the buttons on the feeder. I don't remember enough to walk you through it but there are people here that do - I'm sure you'll get some help shortly. If not, go to http://www.precision-repairs and use th

SOLVED The LED/phototransistor was a little of the center on the "index wheel" (don't know a better name, its the gear that pulls the component strip). The wheel works with a LED from one side and a phototransistor from the other, through a hole on

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

0603 and up should be no problem on the machine. If you are doing under 25 mil pitch the machine needs an upward camera to repeatably place the parts. You will always lose the first 10 or so parts with cut tape but that should be about it. Repair par

Hey guys, I'm using my Quad IV-c for a while now and I already manage to run some batches, but I never used the "Quad Align" feature before, since almost all my boards are 1206 parts, that doesn´t need a ton of precision to align. Anyway,

I have been researching older lower cost used Pick and Place machines and so far I am leaning towards the Quad IV C. There seems to be a fair amount of these units around and I have heard some pretty good things about them on some of the past posts.
