So dont hold back! What machine did you buy?
SCSI,
Looks fantastic. We bought the cheapest pick and place out there years ago, and the software is full of bugs, is not user configurable, limited to 4x control card, looses it's place at random and crashes... We've had to rebuild the machine/feeders several times, and the whole thing has just been a pain. I'm excited to see what happens with your software.
A couple of questions.
1. Will you be able to place QFN IC's?
2. Will the webcams have enough resolution, or would I have to purchase like a microscope or something like that? Have you done testing on these?
3. Why is it limited to 1000 CPH? If you had a faster machine could it place more, or is this about the limit of what a single nozzle can place per hour without flinging parts all over the place?
4. What will you do about software updates?
I love the flexability that you are trying to incorporate.
Press on
Dave
