No, guess I should have tried to explain it better. If I am trying to place a component at X-31.6 and Y52.8 What is the tolerance +/- that the machine will put it at that exact location. I know it's not going to place it at exactly that spot every

Hi, We're going to migrate our boards from through-hole to SMT, and I'm dealing with the PCB layout. I've found a lot of references for fiducial marks but none of them states if components can be placed beyond the marks limits or only within the are

We have an assembly which we are trying to machine pick and place a Mil-Max pin that is .020 dia placed in a .026 hole. The board is .1125 thick. We have to place 106 of these pins. Without going into the challenge of getting proper hole-fill to me

Hi Spoilt...thanks for your reply. The latter part of your reply is a bit perplexing though. The CS-400E is easy to set up. There are two lights spots that indicate the insertion location. The component does not need to be prepped other than bent

"Do you think these machines are less appropriate for smaller lot sizes and PCB's with just a few through hole parts?" That depends. It will still save time if your lot sizes are small, as opposed to hand placement. I would not recommend buying an

Hi Spoilt, Thanks again for the feedback. It is really an eye opener for me. What I fail to realize is that perception, whether right or wrong, plays a big role in whether or not someone might consider a process change. Your first comment is reall
