Certain customers do give us CAD. USUALLY ODB++ but I've also gotten .ipc and .pcb . Many of our customers bought or inherited a design, and therefore have no control to generate additional files. Or, as you mentioned, they had another manufacture

Dear friends, We have a pack of Philips/Assembleon pick and place machines, from CSM and GEM series. I want to set up a "new" Emerald machine, it had been working in Germany 1.5 year ago. It has 3-phase connector. I noticed that it was set

So, I have inherited a couple of "vintage" GSM1 machines, and we've got one powered up, trying to see if it even works, before registering the machine and paying Universal some money. It appears several of the safety interlock switches are triggered

Hi guys we had problems with our old pick and place machines and all the parts data and mark data was lost when we had to restart the machine. We made a copy but it has been so long that we used it that now it's not working. I hope someone has one of

The Eclipse really looks like it would do everything I'm doing now very well. I'm not too clear on how well the laser/1D vision would work for QFN parts, but maybe it would be fine. The downside is I think these machines are now going to be hard to

I certainly can on the Paraquda and I suspect the basic algorithms are the same. Slimmer annular rings such as you might get on a plated via hole don't always image quite as well but if for some reason it doesn't pick it up you should be able to inte

The pictures are kinda fuzzy so its hard to tell of the center pad is electrically connected to anything. If it's not, if its just here for mechanical stability, then you're probably fine. The other thing to make sure of is that both switches are th
