Thank you, mail and update file received. P&P machine still working in English...
Camera angle checking and adjust - ohhh... simple things, implementation really fails. Why not to place 2 points on screen and ask user to move pp head between them? That's all what's necessary to calculate right angle I think.
In my case angle is about 0.7xxx degree. SW allows to enter -1, 0, 1, 2... and so on in 1 degree steps... Reason why all this floating point mathematics necessary is very questionable.
Anyway, most important questions are still unclear for me and may be for the most of community.
Q: 3) pattern check by dimensions - what are the tolerances?
A: 3.When you set the correct footprint and set the suitable brightness value,normally the component will be recognized by the machine(the correction box encircle the component). So the machine will calculate the offset and place the component to the correct position. There is no tolerance concept in here, the correction box shows correctly, then component will be placed correctly.
there is always some concept... So... going to practical example: if component real size is 2x3 mm, pattern sizes are set to 2.2 x 2.8 - what will happen? May be somebody already performed some experiments?
Q: 4) large component fiducial check - what are requirements? How it works?
A: 4.For the big component fiducials.Using smaller mark points diameter will help increase the accuracy. For the big component mark point selecting, please refer the attached methods summarize. Sometimes,creat two working files, one for the normal component mounting,other for the big component mounting, will help mounting accuracy.
May be wrong question. Actually I asked about feeder settings -> vision type -> possible options: no vision, individual, jointly, large component. "LARGE COMPONENT" - that's what I actually mean...
Q: 5) is there a possibility to switch on / off /adjust vibro feeder parameters "on the fly" - may be there is some hotkey available?
A: 5.In current software, there is not hotkey to control the vibration feeder. The vibration feeder can be switched on in the manual test interface and the mounting interface. The vibration feeder frequency and strength can be set in the system setup interface. The frequency and strength values depends by your tube component type.
May be planned in some future update?
Q: 6) tray feeder current position must be updated manually on each project restart. There is no "pause" and request to change tray when last slot processed. In addition it is impossible to bypass pick failure and proceed with next "pocket", always tries the same. May be there is a simple solution here? How to skip "pocket" and force device to go to next "pocket"? How to force "PAUSE" to change tray?
A: 6.If the tray feeder position is same as before,then there is no need to update it. Only when the tray position has been changed, then need set its pick up position and top right position again.
After the last slot processed, the placement head will go to the first slot to pick up the chip again. You can manually pause this, then change a new tray. Or the machine will fail to pick up, after several pick up fails the machine will stop and pop up an error message, then we can change the tray.
If the pick up failed error message shows, click the "Ignore" button, then will skip this component.
That's clear. Wish to see some additional option like: "GO TO PARKING". Then another message box with "GO BACK"/"RETURN" and 1st message box with options again. Otherwise it's a real pain to change reels. Very simple to implement into software if source code already available, isn't it? Park place location - adjustable in system settings like trash tray location, XY...
Sorry for copy/paste, anyway I think that a lack of good user manual is a real problem for most users. Nothing secret and private copy-pasted, just technical information.
