Hi all Everybody seems to be touting the fast changeover capabilities of the Mydata machines. What is it exactly that makes Mydatas so great in this (very important) area, above other brands? I am not attempting to play down the Mydata, I am just ge

you are correct Rob--my bad. I was thinking only of machines still being produced today. Plus the Ancient Fujis were capable of only a limited component range thus you changeover for the whole line could not be completed--only the chipshooter--or a

I looked at that paper yesterday. I do not see anything in there that talks about all of the variables that are in a high mix - high changeover - multiple variable(s) process.

What machine are you using? On our Contact Systems machines we just push the "List Unused" button on the smart feeder menu.

I was thinking that there must be an excel macro floating around here that can just compare the two lists of data (feeder setups) and spit out what the differences are. Maybe ill create one...
