Electronic feeders are faster, more accurate & fully programmable. Potentially (although they don't always make it possible) they mean you don't need dedicated feeders for 2mm pitch or at the other end can do 4,8,12&16mm using the same unit. The feed

We use exclusively pneumatic feeders and can NOT control the force or speed of advancement. We get a lot of components (mostly LED-type packages) that tend to flop around in the pocket a lot and are flipped on the side or “thrown” by the feeder duri

Status output is pin 2. On pneumatic feeders it only shows if the feeder is inserted, on electric feeders it doubles as feeder insertion and goes off if the tape is exhausted or feeder is jammed
