I don't know this machine but I have seen a similar problem on other machines. Have you cleaned and lubed the guide rods for the x-axis? It's easy to forget that AOI machines do need some maintenance. Is it possible that it hangs, while waiting for t

Just wondering if anyone else out there has been able to reduce Set-up time on SMT Machines. We are a contract manufacturer and run several different models in one day on 4 different machines. We currently have 40-50% downtime due to set-up time.

Our TP9 UFP machine keeps nicking the edges of A12 tool tips. I think it is because the X axis is bouncing when it comes to the component pick position. When the X bounces it is causing the tool to hit the tape hold down arm. Has anyone ever encount
