What kind of Tyco machine?? If its a Q-series you need to have a feeder that has photo sensors across the top to index the next part. There are things you can do to make the machine pick up parts at a better percentage.

I know exactly what your problem is as I have seen it many times. Your problem is with indexer 1 (the cylinder which runs up and down and actuates feeders on side 1). At each end of the travel of the indexer is a micro switch hidden down below the be

Use the photo sensor to stop boards instead of the hard-stop. There is also an ultrasonic sensor upgrade. A little more robust than optical. Y Snugger Tooling upgrade is kind of pricey and they like to do that in the plant. But, I've known that upgr

Hold the F1 key during power up, it will boot into the I/O screen. Check the 3 photo zones. Check the door switch. In the main screen you can cancel D1 or D2, then you can swap light sensors. Check carefully the wiring, there is a SYNC wire betwee

In a time crunch, kapton tape works great. If you are using durostone or some material like that for carriers, make sure it is clean right after you machine it and the kapton will stick very well. We are low volume so we pretty much always use tape
