Those Panasonic machines should be able to tell ya pick-up rates form the feeders and shape code errors (components it doesn't recognize). You will probably get a more pick-up errors than anything else. Most of this is due to plastic tape versus pa

You need to use the H nozzle and 4 small jaws (1005). Have the slot in the jaws machined towards the rear of the jaw to increase reach. Set up and calibrate that head with that chucking assembly. Always use the same chucking assembly on the same he

Hi, We are facing a complete new package type for us in our prototype production. RoHS LGA 36 Land Grid Array with 36 so called pads instead of bumps underneath. It is totatlly flat. This component is only 6.5 x 3.5 x 1.6 mm and we recieved them in a

Hi there. Ok, i have a little big question for fuji Erudites: when machine run out of parts on any device it tells to machine "parts out (and part number)" So, a signal from anywhere (maybe a PLC output) will tell to the machine "hey i'm out of parts

We're currently running a manncorp ECM-93, which has served us alright, but we've pretty much outgrown it. We manufacture power electronics, a lot of double sided designs with odd form parts. We have about 30 different designs we manufacture, and we

Hi all, First off, its great to be back on SMTnet after a long absence; wishing everyone the best in the year 2007 ahead. Question: Is there some sort of industry Standard (Mil?, ANSI?, ISO?) on the Calibration Intervals for mechanical based measu

60G are common, as are vibration events of >1.5Grms. And drop heights are just outrageous, old billy throwing your new server off the truck doesn't care too much about the glass house theory, but loves to throw anything that he can lift... say he cra

Solder iron robots tend to miss solder joints from time to time. The wire feeder systems are the key to these machines. Most use the edge of the board for alignment is another reason they miss. If you have SMD close to the thru-hole, the robot may

Hi there CK, I didn't follow the link yet, but I thought I'd comment on your post here. I've attended two engineering schools in the USA, and one of them was a pretty darn good school. At both, I would have to say about 80%+ of the graduate studen
