For what it is worth, I found the Technical Devices machine helped by career. We were able to reduce our defects and lower our cost of operation. I also can't tell you how happy the machine made my maintenance technicans. PM is much less hassle. I

We recently took on distribution of DekTec in the USA, that is to say we market, sell and service the gear. The notion that all equipment coming from Asia is cheap is a misconception. Many of Dektec's current customers are names we know as tier one O

The reality of China is way greater than anyone in high government is admitting. As the purchasing power increases the ROW diminishes and the supply and demand economic cost bases takes on a life of its own. Technologically they become exposed earlie

First off I would like to say it's good to be back. I haven't been working production and I'm really glad to be back. Next... I am looking for either a used MyData flex or 12/16 magazine. Cheap is the key (new company has less then 50 employees)! We

I had a camera go bad on my SPM machine. Of course MPM has discontinued this camera, and the upgrade to fix it cost 10K. Does anyone have any suggestion where I may be able to locate a replacement, or get it fixed ? The camera I have conveniently h

MPM did not discontinue the camera, the camera manufacturer did. It�s not a custom made camera for MPM. Try searching used or second-source cameras. There are three types of vision systems offered on the SPM: manual cross-hair, semi-auto and high-res
