Align Feeder To Carrier Clip
Care must be used in aligning the feeder to the carrier clip to prevent
damage to the carrier clip.
This adjustment positions the feeder on the sequencer module so the pusher
aligns with the carrier clip.
When properly aligned, the component's leads contact the clamps on the
carrier clip forcing them open at the same time. This action puts equal force
on both leads and prevents the component from twisting as it is being loaded
into the carrier clip.
If the feeder is not correctly aligned to the carrier clip, the clip fails to center
to the pusher when it extends.
Prerequisite Adjustments:
Carrier Clip Alignment to the Cutter Station
