Chapter 2 Installing and Removing Loader Tooling Kits Training Seminar # TUBL-001 Revision A
Install Loader Tooling Kit 1. 2. 3. Unlock the tooling by using the red T handle. Remove the existing curved tooling channel if present. If the new tooling kit contains a special air tube, then install it at this time. Loosen the set screw that secures the air tube and switch them. 4. Install the new tooling channel by fitting the rear channel slot into the rear pin on the loader tooling bed. 5. Press the front of the tooling down into the front pin, using care to prevent damaging the copper air tube. 6. Check that the tooling channel is installed flat to the tooling bed, then lock the channel in place with the red T handle. 7. Check the air tube position. It should just peek over the front of the tooling channel. This tube aims air at the placed device to blow it down the channel and into the tube. 8. If the new tooling kit contains a special shutter, replace it at this time by loosening the two set screws that hold the shutter on the rotator shaft. 9. Adjust the shutter height so that it swings over the tooling without rubbing excessively or leaving air gaps when closed. 10. Adjust the shutter rotation so that the shutter completely covers the channel top when closed.

Chapter 3 Adjusting the Tube Loader Training Seminar # TUBL-001 Revision A
Tooling Adjustments 1. The tooling channel requires no adjustment. 2. Depending on the package, the airflow from the air tube may need adjustment. Use the airflow regulator needle valve to increase or decrease airflow. Closing the air flap by hand will activate the air flow. 3. If a special air tube was included in the tooling kit, it may need to be adjusted for height. Use thumbscrew to make the adjustment. 4. Usually the shutter requires no adjustment if installed correctly. However it may be necessary to adjust either the shutter open speed or shutter close speed. Use the needle valve regulators on the rotator to make the adjustments. Use the Tube Stacker Control to assist in the adjustments by manually opening and closing the shutter during adjustment. 5. The Tube Pusher has a plunger force regulator. This rarely requires adjustment.

The four required adjustments to the Tube Stacker Loader after changing tooling kits: 1. 2. 3. 4. Adjust for tube width. Adjust for tube length. Adjust for Rear tube height. Adjust for Front tube height.
1. Adjust for correct tube width. a) Unlock the rail clamp using the red handle underneath the loader. This allows the adjustment of both the tube width and tube length. b) Turn the black knob to adjust the rails for tube width. The belt drives two lead screws which can either widen or narrow the tube guides. c) Place one tube in the loader. d) Correct adjustment allows the tube approximately 1 mm sideto-side play. If the play is excessive, parts could jam at the mouth of the tube due to horizontal misalignment. e) Lock the rails in position using the red handle.
2. Adjust for tube length. a) Unlock the rail clamp using the red handle underneath the loader. This allows the adjustment of both the tube width and tube length. b) Use one tube as a gauge for setting the length. The tube should have one stopper in the rear position. c) Setting tube length correctly is tricky because the tube pusher is involved. Normally the tube pusher is extended while a job is running. However, when the machine is idle the tube pusher is retracted. The length adjustment should be made with the tube pushed extended. Refer to Chapter 9 Tube Stacker Control to extend the tube pusher. d) With the tube pusher extended, slide the rear vertical plate into position so that the tube has only 1 mm of front/rear play. This adjustment is critical. e) Lock the rear plate into position with the red handle.
2. Adjust for tube length. Make tube length adjustment with the Tube Pusher extended. Also note that the stopper tab is pointing up.
3. Adjust for rear tube height. a) Place a tube in the loader resting on the rear support blocks. b) Unlock the rear height adjusters using the brass Lock nuts. c) Adjust the height of the blades using the black plastic knobs. The blades should just slip across the top of the tube. When a full tube is ejected, the blades should slip between the two bottom tubes allowing only the bottom tube to drop. Extend the blades by hand when making this adjustment. (Pinch them together) d) When adjusted, lock the height adjusters in place with the brass lock nuts.
3. Adjust for rear tube height.
4. Adjust for Front Tube Height. a) Place a tube in the loader. Make sure the micro switch hinge is closed. b) Use the red T Allen handle to adjust the height of the front tube support block assy. Turning the T handle will raise or lower the front tube platform. c) Align the mouth of the tube to the tooling channel. This will allow the device to slide smoothly into the tube without jamming at the mouth of the tube. d) Manually load devices into the tube to test the alignment if necessary.
4. Adjust for Front Tube Height. Note that the micro switch hinge is in the closed position. The hinge should ALWAYS be closed to prevent damage to the micro switch.
4. Adjust for Front Tube Height.
Chapter 4 Loading Empty Tubes in the Tube Loader Training Seminar # TUBL-001 Revision A
Loading Tubes in the Tube Loader Note: The empty tubes must have the rear stopper installed. If the stopper has a tab, the tab must be pointing upward. • • Remove the tube weight by sliding up and out. Note the orientation of the weight. It should only install one way. Check that the hinged flap is closed. Load empty tubes with the stopper toward the tube pusher. Re-install the tube weight.
Chapter 5 Teaching a Tube Loader Training Seminar # TUBL-001 Revision A
In the Workflow window, locate the “Destinations” box. Give the tape feeder teach a valid name. NOTE: The teach name must begin with TUBEEXPOUT.
Go to the main window, menu selection AUTOHANDLER/TEACH. Select the “TUBEEXPOUT” name and click Teach.
When prompted, place a device in the loader tooling channel about in the middle of the landing area and click OK. The Adjust Nozzle Position window will appear. Select the correct Pin 1 position according to the Figures (A or B). Use the arrow buttons to position the downward camera or laser pointer over the device, and press OK. Remove the device when prompted.
Chapter 6 Clearing Jams Training Seminar # TUBF-001 Revision A
If jams occur at the mouth of the tube: 1. The Device count sensor detects that a part is blocking the sensor and gives an error. 2. Visually inspect the jam. If the tube is sitting too high or too low, readjust the front tube support height setting. 3. If the height is OK, then the guide rails could be too far apart. Readjust as necessary. If tubes fail to drop when full: 1. Check that the tabs on the rear stoppers are pointing up 2. Check that the tabs are not interlocking. 3. Check that the tube blades are not binding the tube. Readjust rear tube height as necessary. 4. Check that the tube pusher is not binding the tube. Readjust tube length as necessary.
Chapter 7 Tube Loader Maintenance Training Seminar # TUBL-001 Revision A
Tube Loaders require very little maintenance. There are very few user serviceable parts inside. BP Recommends: 1. Periodically clean the channel of the tooling. Remove the metal cover and polish the channel with a soft cloth. 2. Check the Air Mist Separator for water and/or oil. Defective tube Loaders will need to be sent to BP Microsystems, LLP for repair. Call technical support for Assistance.
Chapter 8 Installing the Tube Stacker Loader Option Training Seminar # TUBL-001 Revision A
Important: Power the system down and observe ESD precautions when handling electronic circuit boards.
Installation Procedure 1. Bolt the feeder mounting plate (CPLATUBELOADER) to the host machine table top. This can be any location desired as long as the downward camera (4 x 00) or laser pointer (3 x 00) can “see” the loader place point for teaching. 2. Bolt the loader to the mounting plate. 3. Feed the communication cables and air line to the nearest access hole on the table top. 4. Mount the serial peripheral board assembly (WSERIALTUBELOAD) to a secure location inside the machine. 5. Connect the loader cables to the SP card. They only install one way. 6. Connect one end of the Telephone cable (CCAB 7 FTPHONEBLK) to J 1 on the SP card, and the other end to J 4 on the tube feeder SP card (WSERIALTUBELOAD). This daisy chains the 2 SP cards. 7. Mount the Mist Separator/Super Mist Separator filter assy to the frame inside the handler. Drilling and tapping mounting holes may be necessary. 8. Use the contents of the air connector kit (WAIRCONECTCEFDR) to splice into a regulated compressed air line and tee in the air line to the filter assy. 9. Connect the loader and feeder air lines to the filter assy. 10. NOTE: Installation on a 4 x 00 system may require a different plexiglass safety panel (rear or side depending on location).
