Unfortunately, smt machines are not like TH sequencers. But, that is in their favor. Multiple reels, multiple part types, many positions = very flexible. Offline setup is paramount to line utilization. Remember, you only make money when the machi

Seeing you are already using Quad; I'd look at a Samsung CP-45V. I believe your feeders will be compatible but please cheeck to make sure! These are a six head, on the fly machine that will do just about anything you want apart from gripper applicat

We loose power all the time. So, we have a UPS the size of a four of cases of beer on our telephone system. On placement machines, most people opt for an orderly machine shut-down, rather than completing the program, but you can do it either way.

| Has anyone had experience with prototype-scale, table top Placemax and/or Manncorp pick and place equipment? If so, what has been your experience with the machines? Are they reliable? Did they meet all your needs? Which needs didn't they fill?

Hi everyone, First post here. I am completely new to smt as well. We are a small startup and would like improve our in-house smt assembly capability from manual assembly. We are looking at small production runs, initially about a total of 200 board

We currently run two Quad IVC's (we are very pleased with them) and two Versatronics for simple small volume batch work. We now need an additional machine capable of placing components at least three times as quickly as a IVC. We don't do anything ve

Thanks for all the responses. I do agree with what was said, and can certainly see reasons not to try. I'll write a little more about what we do. We are a defense contractor, and as I mentioned very high mix, low volume. We only have 1 SMT line.

I agree with Russ. If possible buy a bunch of used feeders and load up the next job while the first one is still running. This will save you time and lots of aggrevation over reeling feeders in the correct order, this will never work in the 'real wor

I think we should shift this issue to the machine suppliers, requesting changes in the machine design, in order to keep at least the jobs of high mix, low volume in this country. We can only compete with low labor cost countries by increasing the lev

You question implies they already have UIC machines so already know what to expect and presumably know what they need. If they already have UIC machines, they're already invested in the platform, feeders etc and so this could well be a complete no br
