It is possible. If the talcum powder mixes with the chain lubricant, it could gum everything up. Back a few years ago when I was running an SMT Quattro Peak, I was having an issue with the conveyor chain drive motor going into overload. We had to pul

We found that the "Z offset" on the head was altered relative to the other machine and restoring defaults made both machines display the same settings. Once defaults were restored for the second machine, it began picking up the card from the tray and

I generally do not design an array larger than 10" x 12". Other than just thermal mass, the one issue to watch with extra length is if the array is so large that it spans multiple heat zones at the same time. We have panels that are up to 48" l

I ran those KE750 & KE760 machines more than 5 years ago. As I recall, it can do some sort of gang pick, just not fully simultaneously. It picks with one head first then, it picks up with the 2nd head with minor delay after the 1st pick.

We have a similar board and came up with a quick and dirty solution. The board locates via pins onto a manual desk press with strategically placed feet to break the mouse bite. Not really much quicker than doing it all by hand, but after a thousand p

Hello all! We are trying to program a new board on our machine, but keep getting an error of 'Board did not reach stopper'. The board is reaching the stopper, sensors are seeing the board, I'm lost as to what it could be. Loaded up a similar board a

Sophy, Thank you for the response, but we've got it figured out. The sensor was just low enough that it would see the board as it came in, but once it clamped in the BUT it would lose it. I simply raised the sensor up roughly 1/16" and it has been

Is the BLUE area the only place where parts are located? That is a very interesting concept. Why do they NEED to be flattened? Do they ship flattened, or are they installed flat? I assume that the use of flex is because the actual application re

Also, be sure that your support pins are set correctly and do not allow the board to sag or bounce. Next, is your z correct? Its possible you are pushing the part so hard into the PCB that it's pushing back up or even bouncing the board and throwin

Take all of the nozzles out that are being used to place these parts and look at them under a microscope closely for blockages or dings in the surface that contacts the component. Check that the nozzle travel moves up and down smoothly and freely wi
