Smt 'pick and place' machine issues

I would suggest checking the feeder, MVF and MSR are both turret type and dont have the capability auto pik adjust in y. Y offset pick up would lead to : 1. Over turn component. 2. Missing component. Turret sequence is pick, recognize angle rotate and mount . Offset pick up result to weaker vacumm, there is a high chance that the component fall during angle rotate . Machine will proceed mounting the component even without the component. This results clogged nozzle and this clogged / dirt will be mistakenly to a component during recognition

Do you see fall out components in the camera , in the table ? conveyor? Calibrate feeder in y position.

Other cause of overturn component is wrong feeder type. Example is using emboss type for paper .

For MSR ,this is my first to hear missing and overturn component . What component type you are mounting on this machine.

Hope this would help.

I would hope you have already done this but in case you haven't I would suggest a career change..........determine which machine is causing the problem and then do a PM on it.
