I don't think you can go wrong with either choice. Couple of other things to consider: 1) Are both machines similar in price? 2) CP-6 feeders will work on a CP-7 although the larger pans need to be changed. Used CP-6 feeders go for about $175 on av

Hi Grant, most of my experience is with the range of Fuji equipment, CP's, IP's, QP's. I have not worked with the CP7 yet. With the proper training, Fuji equipment is superb to work with and will run for years. My only Universal experience

Mike FYI SANYO chipshooters are sold/serviced worldwide through two sources; Nissei Sangyo Trading Co. (which is a division of Hitachi), and Universal Instruments Corp (http//www.uic.com). Contrary to popular belief, SANYO High-Technology Co., Ltd.

Go with Universal. We had Fuji equipment for years. That is all but phased out now and we only are buying Universal. You cannot beat their service. The chip shooters are great. The only cons that I have dealt with is the learning curve on the n

You can't tell how a machine will perform on your particular board by looking at it place parts at a trade show. Usually they demo a best case scenario (parts in a simple grid pattern, few package types, etc.) You need to supply the board data for y

Doug The 4796A and 4796R machines maintain maximum tact time within an XY table movement window of approximately 17mm. In addition, due to their ability to perform "on-the-fly" theta correction, they are also able to maintain top speed for a larger

Although I have not personally run or programmed either the Universal or the Fuji to any great extent, I have worked in factories that have utilized each type. One had 4796 machines and the other used Fuji CP3, 4, 4-2, 6, 643. As an observer I am d

Guys I've been following your threads for a bit here. I have to say that the Universal machine is as robust and probably better than the Fuji. I too have been in this business for about 20 years and have had considerable experience on both. The pla

Hi, We thought about the Universal turret chip shooter, and decided to go away from them because they are mechanically complex and expensive. We also wanted to use machines of the same brand on the line so we could run the management software easi
