Does anyone else encounter problems using feeders to handle caps that are reeled up with paper tape. We are having alot of problems with vendors that are now using the thicker type (like cardboard) to use to reel up caps. Our feeders either run too

Ok, I just need someone to give me some feed back on a few questions I have. If anyone could help me that would be great. Example: take a Fuji CP-4 feeder for instance! If I machine my own, place my own parts on it, and place my own company name, and

Hi Jack, I do not know what type of machine you are using and how old is your machine. But I have this problem before using Fuji machine. There are few things cause part throw.....placment speed, feeder, pick up tolerance, part dimension tolerance,
