Hello All, I've just bought a Quad 4c pick & place machine. It's so close to actually building boards, but just doesn't quite get there. I was wondering if there's somebody out there with experience of these machines that might be able to help...?

I'm setting up a rather complicated job on our quad IVc. I was almost done (after days), and after i did the sequence, i saved it, downloaded it, and started checking the picks and places, well, i needed to change one, and went back to the sequence,

My Quad IVc's will also do the same thing. Mine are equipped with CyberOptics scanners, not QuadAlign. The Cyberoptics scanners do go bad and once they do, they get very warm to the touch and at the same time, if the Quad is reset, the theta axis wil

I never thought I'd utter these words but, Have you considered Quad? Quad went out of business around 2001 but the line was picked up by Tyco Automation and then by a company called Precision Placement Machines (PPM). A Quad 4C with feeders should

Hi Bobpan. Thanks for the reply. I had already tried red stickers as suggested in the manual, then blue then silver but none of those worked so white was my last resort. I'm running 3 machines in tandem and they all start at the same time so stopp
