Generally, the machines can place the same types/sizes of components. The advantage with the 11 is that you can have more magazines loaded with more components, and build larger assemblies more efficiently. The -9, though, will get you through near

Not swapping out feeders....swapping out magazines. It only works well if you have enough extra mags to load all the feeders on. And is a viable solution if your position limited on your machine. Before the advent of Aegis feeders for My machine

Hi, I have used both MYDATA TP9, MY9 and more recently MY12. MYDATA machines are just not accurate, and we did everything possible, and every kind of upgrade they had. We ended up putting in Fuji XP based machines, and the differences are very notic

Thanks for all the responses. I do agree with what was said, and can certainly see reasons not to try. I'll write a little more about what we do. We are a defense contractor, and as I mentioned very high mix, low volume. We only have 1 SMT line.

On our Mydata machine, we place a piece of scrap bare pcb next to the pcb we are loading. Using double sided tape, we attach the cut tape strip to the bare pcb, then program the machine to pick up the parts from that location. The smallest Mydata m

We have run Mydata machines for 10+ years with no ESD damage from the machine itself that we know of. Can you tell us how you have verified it is the machine causing the ESD damage? It seems to me the ESD damage would be far more likely coming from

TL;DR: I like internal part numbering systems for passive chips and the like, and keeping MPNs for active components (or components with many variants and/or options that could be easily confused as equivalents). I've always been a fan of internal

The centering jaws are made out of copper, I believe...and conductive. I'd suggest that the conductivity of the copper makes it a fairly poor source of ESD damage in a component. I have observed physical damage to components from the centering jaws

You can use cut tape on Mydata machines fairly easily. We are a high mix, low volume manufacturer who has to use cut tape often as that is what our EMS customers provide. It is does take more time to load/unload than a reel does so you need to fi
