JMills, The white clip that I refer to is for the Agilis feeder system. The actual clips (feeders) are color coded. As far as the timing on the TM8's, I received a proceedure from Mydata several years ago but had reverted to submitting the feeder ba

Travis, Thanks, but there is no adjustments (software or hardware) for tape advancement on the TM8FC magazines. Got a hold of the feeder documents from Mydata that Sr.Tech was talking about. I'll try there suggestions. Thanks

The recommended feeder for 0402s and especially 0201s is the green feeder with a 3.7mm spec. We use greens for 0402/0201, white for 0603, yellow for 0805s, and reds for tantalums. They work well, but sometimes you seem to get difficult tape. I hav

Do you have a login for the support section on the Mydata website ? If not, get one. Click on MYtech, then click the article named: "Simple feeder care reduces reject rate! The component separator spring" We run alot of 0402's on the TM8FC mags wit

My company also uses the TM8C (all feeders) with the same problem as Paul. The 0402's do exactly the same as he desribes.The SMT operators are correcting the placement data all the time when using 0402 but to no avail. Chris What do you mean by the

MyData TP9s Work well in high mix applications because change over time from 1 job to the next can be done in as little as 15 minutes if you have the right mix of magazines/feeders. Component placement rates vary depending on which component you ar

Hi everyone. I hope someone or many someones can offer guidance. I have many magazines that have various problems. (Not feeding and/or not pulling tape on some slots) Does anyone have any information for repairing or troubleshooting these? It seems l

You'll want to double check the electronics in the magazines, as well as the mechanicals. Over time, the connectors can come loose, and could affect performance. I'm thinking of the "dead" feeder that you mentioned, while the rest of the feeders wo
