I used a clam-shell type for years before switching to the LPKF. The ZelPrint LT300 looks a lot like the LPKF one. I prefer the LPKF or ZelPrint style because they are capable of getting better (more accurate and more consistent) prints when compared

There is a stencil cutting machine in the industry which utilizes a water jet to deliver a Laser beam for cutting stencils. There are no machines of this type in the states. The quality is no better than a Laser cut stencil using a good Laser System.

It looks like the Zelprint LT300 is LPKF too... The first one was an LPKF Protoprint S, and the second was an LPKF Zelprint LT300. Are there any of these printers that have a device to actually apply the solder paste with consistent and constant pre

I have bought an old SP-2400 screen printer, very cheap. I have "repaired" it from my best knowledge, replaced all pneumatic tubes that were in bad shape, replaced some logic in the "controller", and changed it from 110v operation to 220v. Well, to
