Our Panasert MSH is randomly mixing up the parts placement. About 1 in 10,000 placement will be a wrong part. The wrong part may be any other part present on the feeder carriage. A chip resistor 0805 may be replaced by a minimelf or a sot-23. It is

I used to work with Chris. (neither of us are there anymore). What is he talking about is putting components into "pockets". The parts would come in, in sticks (tubes) but we wanted them in reels. At first we sent them out to be reeled, but that w
