Gah! We found the reel empty sensor on the feeders late yesterday. Now, I'm feeling a little dumb after this episode! Apparently, I have a few feeders that have had this "feature" disabled (or that it's broken on), which made it even more di

Universal Instruments AC30L. Rated at over 30k CPH but dependent on mix you will realize between 18k and 24k CPH REAL speeds. Very flexible with feeder cart swapping. Wide component mix. American made and the best support of any p&p company. Sounds

The only real local support I am finding is for universal instruments. I have remote support. What machines in the under $10k with feeders category for learning on do you recommend? Most likely leaning to upgrade to a used samsung machine in a ye

Tom, we are in the Chicago area and we deal extensively with used Universal Instruments equipment. I probably have just about anything you might need for an older GSM in stock. I agree with Deni in that I would match a replacement hard drive very cl

I would look at Universal for sure. They have a ton of late model Chip placer's and GSM's that they will discount heavy. There are so many used GSM's and HSP's on the market you could probably get what you need for a fraction of the cost. You could p

The GSM can place the part from a XY positioning standpoint without issue. You'll have to look at what camera you have to know if the machine can inspect it. After that you need to decide if your feeders can accurately provide the part to the machine

Great advice!........Single tier feeder set-up carts are also available through Universal instruments directly for this exact purpose. Most people who really care about this changeover time have "pit-crews" that work in the component storage areas, o

The feeders that you are probably refering to are made by hoover-davis. They only have adjustable pitch( electronic ). You probably will not find a universal feeder that has adjustable width. This is because the guide track is positioned on the left

I am looking at either an older model Juki 750/760 or an older model Universal Instruments GSM (flexhead). I need something very reliable and repeatable. I am looking for a no hassle machine. The more reliable and repeatable it is the better. I h
