I've gone round and round on this very subject with our manufacturing engineer. He prefers to use panel fiducials and I prefer board fids. I've seen the result in placement from bowed PCB's in the machine. Skewing the board a fraction will throw off

I started a new company that has a Testronics 504 AOI machine. No one knows how to program it, and they can't find the manual. So far I have been able to load a centroid file, and set the board size. However, when i load everything, all my parts a

0603 and up should be no problem on the machine. If you are doing under 25 mil pitch the machine needs an upward camera to repeatably place the parts. You will always lose the first 10 or so parts with cut tape but that should be about it. Repair par

Hello, First of all I am new to the forum and surface mount machinery in general. The machine in question has a problem picking parts correcly. The main problem seems to be that the camera and actual head location is out of calibration? If I do a ru

RLM, you have been very helpful! Let me try this on you: We have two IVC's, one with a conveyor and Quadalign, the other with a workholder platform and Cyber-optic. I just ran the first successful assembly on this second system, but the extents had

I bought an “as is’ Quad IIC package a while back. The machine definitely has issues with the Quadalign Board. The ICs were literally falling off of the board. I am guessing when it was manufactured they did not get the PC board quite hot enough or s

Now I see - not sure. The only trouble I've had that was similar was because an electronic eye on one of the stages was seeing a machine that was installed a couple inches over the top of the conveyor. We had to install a flat black plate on the ma
