One of our GSM machines started having an issue with "spitting" parts onto the board / blowing them around. I determined the problem be that spindle #2 on our flex head is not touching the parts all the way down to the board. It is stopping just abov

SOLVED Upon manually activating the zaxis to drive the spindles down, it was noted that the touch down sensor for spindle #2 was activating at a certain point in the travel without touching anything. I went to look at the adjustment of the sensor

Yes, and while it did, its been around longer than we have had any sort of process engineers. While the package naming scheme, or lack there of, is a mess. I am mostly curious if there is any other identifiers or naming conventions besides specific m
