I am shopping around for a cheap pick and place to do a few small runs of boards, just something to hold me over until I get things lined up to buy a high quality permanent machine. I have come across a few Quad 100s that are ridiculously cheap and

I'm trying to configure the nozzle changers on my GSM1 machine because they were not configured when I bought it. I've figured out most of the setup with the UPS documentation, but I don't know what the I/O addresses are for the changers. Does anyon

Nozzle changer issues on gsm1

Electronics Forum | Tue Apr 19 11:30:50 EDT 2016 | ttheis

Hi Swag, Thanks for the suggestions. I did perform a changer teach on both changers successfully which resolved minor mis-alignment issues but not this problem. You can see in the photo that there are two open holes (5&6)and it is trying to drop a n

Hi Swag- thanks for the reply. I did check the height definition of the component first. Its defined under the "other" category which I think is OK. Interesting point on the program being jacked- I did manually move those parts to the end of the rout
