How to place tall components

Hi,

I'm trying to place tall components, like some electrolytic capacitors but, when the nozzle touch the cap and the its lower limit switch is activated, the tinyG stops until a reset is performed.
This occurs only if the capacitor is in a tape, but works fine as loose component.
There are no problems placing short components.

How I can solve this issue for the capacitors?

Thanks

If it works as a loose conponent, your probing function works. Most likely, the tape height measurements are off. Try to select the tape and reset the z’s. This forces the system to re-measure the part next time it is used.
