We currently run two Quad IVC's (we are very pleased with them) and two Versatronics for simple small volume batch work. We now need an additional machine capable of placing components at least three times as quickly as a IVC. We don't do anything ve

I have been reading the forum to try and figure out what brands to look at for Pick and Place machines. We need around 3,600 cph, and would like to be able to handle 0402, soic, tssop, and perhaps as little as 0.020" pitch. Max pcb is 9 x 13". Looks

Dr. Lou, I wouldn't recommend the Quad QSP series. A stated before it's old tech, and the feeders are junk. If your looking at Tyco (Quad), they have a new Mirae 1025P platform. It's very competitive performance/price against Assembleon and the li

Let's think about this, there former filed service engineers. I bet they got out of field becasue of being laid-off. Typically the NON-Performers are the first to go. Hint hint.....former field engineers! Quad 4C's when they were new to the marke

Hi Phil, Most parts are still available for the Quad/Samsung QSA-30, through Dynatech (in North America). It is actually a single gantry, 3 spindle machine with rated speed of 14,000 cph. As with any used machine, it could be a great deal or a not

tuckered pony I'm riding. Nearly two years off from the biz, and the place I landed is the place I sold a bunch of used equipment to while at my last job. It's deja vu all over again. Anyway, I'm a little more active with the placement equipment he

I've been running Quads for over 10 years, and I love them. I've had almost every model, from the 100, to our current IVCs, and QSP2. We are getting busier, and I'm thinking about upgrading. I have TONS of feeders, so the simple solution would be t

We use Quad IICs, and IVCs and love them. They can be expensive to fix, but they are pretty reliable. I think PPM is releasing Windows software for their rebuilt machines, although I think it was going to be exensive. Maybe they give it away with
