Hi, Yes, I would love to know this as well. Our machines can handle the component sizes, but how do the printers handle it? We have a DEK, and that's a good printer, but how do you design the stencil to reliably paste release on components this smal

Hi, Just checked with the manufacturer of that printer, and they cannot to the larger size. Shame, as it looked like a really good design. Anyone know of any other brands? Grant

Hello As some one already said Dek and MPM printers are very good and reliable printers. I have been a field service engineer for over 20 years. I had to service and train on both of them. No matter which one you decide on, we advise you to buy onl

I will sell my X5 soon, in September, as my scheduling comes true. Used EKRAs have really good price because they are good printers. I saw most of them between 4000-20000 EUR depends on configuration and vintage. My E5 was around 8k€ 10 years ago, X

We have a new MPM Momentum. It's hands down the best printer we have ever worked with. Load program--add paste---forget about it. Runs every day all day with no issues what so ever. I come from a "machine background" and the MPM's are much more robus

Both are good printers, the key thing buying kit this old is availability of spares and support - Check out what is available local to you. We have 14 DEKs, which we are happy with - but the support in one of our regions is fantastic (local independ

Hi, Ok, and thanks for the heads up on that, and I will contact them and see what model that is. I liked one of their manual printers, as it looks like the board slides back on linear bearings and then lifts up under the stencil, instead of the usua
