Dear TechNetters,
        I'm new to the system but so far I have been very impressed with
the knowledge and spirit of cooperation.  Everyone should be proud.

I work for a contract assembler.  We have standard top of the line Fuji
equipment but we still have a gap in our automation.  I am interested in
Vision based robotic systems such as the Flexfeeder 250 from Adept
technologies to fill this gap for odd form placement and placement of
parts in bulk.
        Does anyone have experience with such equipment or competitors
to Adept.  I am concerned that the accuracy of the placement will not be
sufficient since these systems use the edge of the board for
registration rather than viewing the fiducials.  Adept claims an
accuracy of +/- 0.003".  This would be fine on most parts if we could
also use fiducails.   Any and all comment would be appreciated.

        Regards,

        Wade Oberle
        Sr. Mfg. Engineer
