Nozzle Positioning Tips
If components are not dropped properly, there are four variables that can be adjusted to correct
the problem.
Note: Each part is different and may require a different combination of adjustments to
obtain proper place performance.
1. Adjust Blow-off Pressure. The Blow-off Pressure Gauge is
located on the left side of the Pick Head Bridge. If components are
not dropping properly, pull the gauge out and rotate to adjust
pressure levels. When the desired pressure level is reached, push
the gauge back in.
Note: Every part is different and may require a different combina-
tion of adjustments to obtain proper place performance.
2. Adjust Place Position X. Open the Head Set-up Tab.
Jog the head left or right until the nozzle is centered correctly over
the place location. When the nozzle is positioned correctly, press the
Teach Place Positions button.
