Hi, Yes, when we load new reels we cut off the end of the tape, just long enough so we can make sure the whole tape will feed out the back of the machine as it starts to feed. We have the Agillis TM1218 feeders, and they do have problmes with the

Hi, Wow, weird seeing this old thread pop up again, and it's weird re reading my old posts, and remembering how frustrated we were with the larger 12 and 16 mm Aggillis feeders that kept sticking. We ended up dumping the MYDATA as it just could not

basically the rule of thumb for the 8mm feeder is that you only want one component exposed in the pocket at a time. If you see more than one component exposed you need to go down in size. The reason for this is that if there is another component expo

You should get good service support and reliability from all of them, provided your local distribution agent is a good one. In the UK for instance I would trust all 3 on that front but I would expect very different support pricing structures. Any ma

With all due respect, it is my experience that "some" design engineers should spend at least some time in a production type enviroment. It gives a real sense of how things actually act when put into daily action. I realize that the specs manufacturer

Hi Pete, Thanks for taking the time to respond. My experiences with Mydata would differ from yours, but as in life, different machines are for different circumstances. We have many low volume customers that love them - they are easy to use, upgr

Hi, Your right, and the MYDATA's are much easer to setup, and a lot of it's got to do with them knowing which way a part is oriented, and it makes it a lot easer to know by looking at each part if it's rotated correctly. The Fujis don't do that, and

Hey guys, My company is currently looking into developing a SMT line. I have an interesting perspective on this due to the fact that I worked a SMT line for quite a few years as an equipment operator. Now I am an engineer and at a different company

We are a OEM and growing pretty fast. The like the idea of setting up common components on the machine. It makes sense from a set up perspective. All of our set up is off line but the set up usually lasts longer than the SMT run so we have some spora

Hi Pete, What you are describing is something that will happen regardless of feeder type or machine type. When taking off a partial reel there is the potiential to lose components. It is minimised by careful handling. Yes I would agree that the Myda
