Hi, The machine is a Universal GSM1 flexhead. Is it possible to just change the lens of a 2.6mil camera for a 1mil or 0.5mil lens. Or do I have to buy a complete camera assembly to do this? Thanks, Grant

GEB - We have a 1.0 mil camera for GSM1 that we do not use. We would prefer to have a 2.6 mil on our machine. Are you interested in a trade?

Interesting... where are you based? I am in the UK. What types of components benefit from having a 2.6mil over a 1mil?

Thanks for the info. I use the machine with a 1mil for resistors and capacitors and the machine with the 2.6mil for ICs (both have a 4mil.) This is because the r's & c's seem to benefit from the 1mil, more than IC's. I was thinking of making the mach

Your IC's should run great. I have changed out a handful of cameras inside the box (you know when your camera is burning out because the monitor will show black/gray horizontal lines). It's pretty easy. Aftermarket cameras are about $350 I believe

SWAG is right on the money. I had a 0.5 mil per pixel camera and a 1 mil per pixel camera. As you increase magnification your focal range goes down. So your part height becomes much more critical. Parts out of focus will be rejected to the dump b

We are in North Western U.S. I like 2.6 better (for our mix of builds, anyway). 1.0 works great on PTF parts such as fine pitch QFP's but I don't like it for chips. It's too picky and we wind up forcing parts to the 4.0. We have another GSM dual

Our company would like to be able to inspect 0201 parts using our YesTech YTV 2050. To do this, we have purchased a doubling lens from YesTech that attaches to our top camera. The problem is, we bought our YesTech used from another CM, not from Yes

I would like to throw my $0.02 in here as well. $15,000 to register a used system seems like a lot of money, I agree, but on the other hand, why would one expect that service and support should be free or even at a discounted price. Like the other p

On the camera lens, there should be a ring to adjust aperature and one to adjust the focus. Sometimes an extension piece is needed between the camera and the lens.
