Tony, I'm in Ken's corner.....the speeds the manufacturers offer are pretty much meaningless when it comes down to your particular board. Brand X can say they will do 1,000,000 cph but when you put your board on the machine with multiple parts at di

Steve, Thise old Quad's will work just fine if you have low qty's to build. I would take them any day over a huge new Fuji line that is only good for large qty runs. We presently have a line that is coming up on 10 years old and it works just fine
