SMT Assembly line - DEK 265GS, (3) Universal GSM Pick and Place, BTU Reflow Oven

Description

Functional Pre-Owned Complete SMT Assembly Line - Still Operational
(Subject to prior sell, I am listing this on other venues as well)
Update: We're needing the space so the price is dropping.  If you have a serious offer and can take this equipment soon please contact me, I'm very open to making a deal.
Up for sale is a full turnkey SMT line and all of it's accessories, of which there are a lot, featuring three Universal GSM1 pick and place machines with flexjet and flex heads, each machine is rated at 10,000 cph.
This was our main production line up until we bought a brand new line last year, it's actually pretty simple to run and has a lot of built in features that make getting a product setup fairly simple.  While these machines are a little older they are actually pretty lightly used for their age (The pick and place machines are at 12M, 18M and 19M placements).  I've gone to quite a bit of effort to give all the pertinent information I can in this listing, but please feel free to contact me if there is any more information you need.  I'm more than will to work out a demo as well.
This line would make a lot of sense for anyone wanting to be able to do some serious SMT manufacturing on a budget.  I did the the research before we ended up getting a brand new line for... well a whole lot..., and a comparable line with newer used equipment would cost at least 0K.   These are just old enough that the SMT dealers don't want them (though some are still selling them), but are recent and robust enough that they can still give you some serious output, and these pick and place machines can place anything the newer machine can with the exception of tiny parts like 0201s and smaller, they can actually place bigger parts than most the newer equipment.  (Truth be told if you wanted to invest in some add-ons, Universal has a whitepaper on how to get these to place 0201 chips, but if your serious about placing those you probably want something more expensive.)  If you have a particular part you need placed I'd be glad to evaluate it and even do a test placement if you'd like.
I started the listing at K and have reduced it to try and get a quick sale, we'd like to get these moved and clear some space.  I do have some room to move on price, so I'll listen to reasonable offers.  For their capabilities this is an excellent price, but we realize that older equipment is going to come with issues, and we are selling these "as-is" and "where-is" so hence the low price.  We will have to charge sales tax unless you can provide the appropriate documents showing you are exempt.
Shipping will be the buyers responsibility, we can help move the machines around, but we will not be responsible for how they are loaded.  It will take a full 53' semi to move everything we're offering so the truck should be able to go straight from point to point, which would remove the need for crating, it'll just need to be strapped well.
All of these models of machines were pretty widely used in the USA, so while parts are likely to be used or repaired they are available.  There are also a handful of techs that still work on these machines at a reasonable rate, I think you can even register them with Universal still, and get what support they offer, but if your buying these your probably on a budget and it does cost to register them.  I have contact information for a tech I found that works on these that we were going to have come out before we decided to sell them, just ask if you'd like it.
The machines have been in a dry air conditioned facility since we got them 7 years ago.  They have developed a few issues that you may want to address, though one option that we considered would be to reduce the line to two pick and place machines and use one for parts.    The recommendation I made to my boss before we made the decision to sell them was to have a tech come fix them up, the issues don't seem major and can be worked around, I've listed the known chronic issues below.  I can provide the information for the tech we were planning to use who has a lot of experience with these machines, if you like you could even have him check out the machines prior to buying, though my recommendation would be to have him help install and do training for the machines at your location, that way he could get them all calibrated in their new home.
I have lots more photos and videos, let me know if you'd like access to them.  The line is currently still connected and can be demoed either in person or via video chat.  For those of you familiar with these Universal machines, these are a Q-block.  I'm told they were made around 2000, but there isn't a DOM on the tags.  I was also told these machines were upgraded by Universal in 2005 with a new vision system and ability to take the 42V feeders.

Known issues by machine:
DEK 265GS: Keyboard tends to input characters multiple time when a key is pressed (the keyboard isn't used a lot)
(We've fixed some of the things that tend to have issues on this machine as it gets old, such as the display screens that we replaced with LCDs, and the air hoses which get brittle and crack most of which have now been replaced, but there may be a few left.)
UIC GSM M1 (without Flex head and PTF):
No outstanding chronic issues.
UIC GSM M2:
Spindle 5 is disabled, it would go down when it wasn't supposed to, we've unplugged the clutch and then leave it out of the optimizing process.  We've talked to a tech that thought this should be a fairly simple thing to track down and fix.  We already tried replacing the Flexjet head PCB and it didn't change anything that would likely be the more expensive fix (did I mention we have a spare Flexjet head PCB?)
When opening the program editor an error window pops up that reads “u-APE.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows. You will need to restart the program."
There is still a way to open products by going to through file explorer to find the program you want and open it there. The error message should come up once, but will work on the second attempt opening.  (There is probably a simple fix for this, it hasn't been worth spending much time on.)
Axis error codes 10210, 10215 and 10223 have shown up occasionally mostly after long inactivity.
UIC GSM M3:
Has occasionally had rotation axis errors, we got it to run well by removing the belt between the axis motor and the spindles and spinning the motor to a different orientation and putting the belt back on.  Not quite sure why this helped but it did, again this is likely a pretty simple fix.
PTF1:
No Known issues.
PTF2:
PTF that is connected to M3 has a serial communication problem (code 26400).  This is a intermittent issue, but it was annoying enough that we ended up disabling the PTF and using the one on M2.  So the machine runs fine, it's just the PTF that has issues.  We were told this could be anything from a loose cable to the main control board.  Hopefully a tech could track it down, or this PTF could be used as a parts unit.
BTU Reflow Oven:
Ventilation fans are a little rough at startup, but they've been like that since we got this things and it's still working fine.
We actually just recently fixed the other issues it had like the gas struts and a couple flakey SSRs.  It's running as well as it ever has for us and that is saying something.

FlexJet Head - The all-around performer
The FlexJet Head quickly and accurately places components as small as 0201 up to 55mm square and 25mm tall with single field-of-view inspection. Gang pick up to seven components.  C4/High force head - Unmatched flexibility and odd-form capability To handle your extreme application requirements, programmable insertion forces from 150 to 5000 grams. Additional features include selectable placement delay and normal, medium and slow tact modes.
High Force Head (GSM1 and/or GSM2)
The High Force Head assembly is the component pick-up and placement mechanism, with required enhancements to accommodate C4 or odd form type components. It is a four spindle head with each spindle having vertical and rotational movement capability.  The spindles are driven in the vertical direction by a single Z-axis motor (with each spindle individually clutched) for component pick-up and placement. Each spindle accepts a variety of different nozzles, allowing pick-up and transport of various component sizes and types.
