It is always an enticing thing to watch high speed machines planting parts lickity split. We are a small shop doing experimental and short runs, and have been running our dear old Mydata TP9-2U for years. No repairs, never failed because we have alwa

Hi there To all the MyData users out there who use Agilis feeders I would like to pose a question. What does your company do with the feeder sticks you have that get the tips of the plows broken off? Do you get them repaired or do you toss them aw

It would have to be really CHEAP! I ran one a few years ago, had 3 4C's gained together. Always had problem with the software and it was a high maintenance machine. Never had such problems with Mydata, Phillips or Zevatech. Also, it seemed I alwa

In circumstances like these immediately switch off and remove your power supply , I often build a test harness because the damage to an expensive and unique machine is not woth the trouble of shotgun repair. Dead resistors in the voltage sense rail.
