Do you know if I can use Multi Pitch Tape Feeder from GSM2 platform on GSM and GSM1 platform?

Thank you,

Yes, you should be able to. The feeder interface for the GSMs (not Advantis or Genesis) has been the same as far back as I can remember... And we used to have a D-block machine.

We use some of the same feeders from that old D-block GSM on the GSM2s we purchased fully refurbed from Broome Engineering about a year ago. However, keep in mind that it is possible to have a Precision Pro feeder interface on a GSM or GSM2. You cannot use Precision Pro feeders on a non-Precision Pro machine.
