Can you also describe what symptoms you were having = before you found this problem?

Thanks!

Dear AMMRL,

We would like to share one of our recent learnings= about Bruker Sample Express with you all.

Hope this piece of information will be helpful for y= our future needs.

After five years of seamless operation, our Bruker S= ample Express has begun to exhibit subtle signs of aging. During a recent i= nspection, we identified a concerning issue: three of the motor placeholder= s within the autosampler displayed clear signs of wear and tear, and they were found to be completely broken = when we removed them as shown in attached photos.

After some research and invaluable assista= nce with Peter Demou, we found the correct name of the part for the space h= older of the motor is General Purpose Vibration-Damping Sandwich Mounts wit= h Stud and Insert. However Mcmaster does not have the right size as 8*8*6 3M.  https://www.mcmaster.com/products/b= umpers/metric-general-purpose-vibration-damping-sandwich-mounts-with-stud-a= nd-insert/

Don't be confused with the Load-Rated Threa= ded Bumper (htt= ps://www.mcmaster.com/93115K871/). It can not work because it does not have the top female portion.�= �

Finally, We found the correct parts at amazon, let&#= 39;s see how long it will last.

Have a wonderful day!
