Sorry but I have never worked with a machine that has the Cyberoptics system. Have you tried talking to PPM (www.goppm.com), They have been very helpful to me.

Thanks for the suggestion, Bobpan. I'll start looking for a replacement coax cable. Would we be better off to look for a Quadalign system and replace the Cyberoptic unit? Doug

We use Quad IICs, and IVCs and love them. They can be expensive to fix, but they are pretty reliable. I think PPM is releasing Windows software for their rebuilt machines, although I think it was going to be exensive. Maybe they give it away with

0402 imperial? all those machines should be able to handle that. Even an old Quad 4C can place those. As others have said, availability of parts in your area will be the issue.

If you go with a Quad from PPM, I believe that they've developed a windows interface for the machine. They also have a couple of old Quad people working there for continued support. --I receive no benedits from PPM, but I am a happy customer-- We

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

I am looking at buying a pick and place machine to assemble the circuit boards we make. Most of the boards are small (2 to 10 square inches), most are 2 sided, and have maybe 20-50 parts per side. I use mostly 0805/0603 chips, SOT-23, SOD-123, SOIC

Hello Doug, There is no tuning up of the cyber-unit. From the symptoms you describe......sounds like the white cable that plugs into the cyber is intermittent. Maybe you can find one somewhere and try that. The cyber unit is a closed assy. and was ma

Yes, it looks like it would involve quite a bit... I guess it partly depends on finding the hardware/firmware, possibly from a donor machine. But it might not be worth the cost. At the moment I'm running all product on the first machine with Quada

Low-Medium volume and Low Budget are difficult for others to quantify. I'm not familiar with GEM's but if the AX-201 suggested above can use your existing feeders its obviously got a leg up on the competition. Otherwise, to some extent your choice mi
