Thank you very much. I swapped the component length and width measurements in Autoprogram and it now places the SOT23's with image verification no problem. As for the 0402's I am still working on this. Pick and place is very new to me, well I start

Hey you FlexJet users out there... We just bought a new Universal machine with a FlexJet head on it. Excellent machine. However, I'm still in the learning stage and having a little trouble with 0402's and 0603's (caps mostly but resisters as well)

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

No Steve, Having the chance to work with newer equipment and 'latest and greatest' technology opens your eyes to older 'dated' machines limitations. If your growing and you may be going towards 0402's and even 0603's.......its better to upgrade and

I agree avalancher. Your description is a valid point. But, I am still under the impression that the vac level is a separate issue. His original problem was 0402's missing off the board ,and weird measurements showing up when parts get rejected. I w

Hi,everybody! There is an interesting things happened with the 0402 components- machine Siemens HF3,it's an Emergency Stop error message " Component not at nozzle before placement" and there is a chance to find an extra components lying in a mess on

We are also having some issues with certain small parts. In our case this is tantalum caps and 0402 caps. We had a vendor admit after much discussion that the plating used from a particular orgin was different on the tantalums. The tehory is thatthsi

Multiport nozzles will work better if your pickup is not perfect. Has been a while but are the nozzles 08MPF? I used to pick 0402 chips with 08MPF nozzles. These had 5 holes and were black Delrin plastic. I looked at the 0402 using front lighting

Hello, We are looking at purchasing a Versatronics RV4S. I am looking for some impartial advice on it's capabilities. The majority of our boards will have 0603 passives and maybe one or two 100 pin TQFP's, however, we are expecting to go down to 040
