UNIVERSAL 6241D SMTpart

. Component ID: This is a unique name that identifies the component. All references to the component use this name. . Category: The category is a predefined group into which a component belongs. -Interconnect: An Interconnect category is provided for components that are unique to the Interconnect machine.

The default component IDs for this category are: Component 1 Component 2 Component 3 These components are intended for use with the Interconnect machine. The component definitions are designed to be modified for specific applications. -Other: An OTHER category is provided for components that don't belong to any of the predefined categories. .

Shape: (radial) The shape defines the approximate configuration of the component body as viewed from the top. . Description: (optional) This field can be used to add any desired information about the component. Body Information A sample Body Information data entry group is displayed. . .

Diameter: The dimension of the component body parallel to the plane of the leads as viewed from the top (circular radial components). . Width: The dimension of the component body perpendicular to the leads or the plane of the leads. For axial components this is the same as the body diameter. This field is not enabled for circular radial components. .

Height: The distance from the board to the top of the component body. For axial components this is the same as the width. Centering Speed This feature is designed to prevent damage to the component body while centering certain components by slowing the speed of the component centering mechanism. The valid values are a percentage of full centering speed.

(axial components for VS 8 machine only) Valid percentages of full speed are: 100, 80, 60, 45 Setting the centering speed is a trial and error process. The object is to use the highest percentage of full centering speed that allows centering without damage to the component body.

Body Information For Interconnect Components A sample Body Information data entry group for Interconnect category components is displayed. There are two data fields that are unique to Interconnect category components.
