We offer two modes of mark detection based on panel or single PCB. Mark points per panel or single PCB means a pair of points in opposite edges to align the Placement data. It’s important to find the mark point position on first master PCB using the vision functions and take over the given position to PCB settings mark point position!

Bug fixes in feeder setup dialog! If grid feeder first time selected during new feeder setup, the software ask to save feeder first before you can open the grid feeder settings.

Vibration feeder bug solved! If part failed during alignment or vacuum test the next part picked up can't get well aligned.
