We're a U.S.-based small-medium sized CM and have a relatively high-mix of boards. We want to start a new machine platform starting from lower-end (slower) and later to higher-end (mass production) machines of the same brand (programs). Other than

What pick and place machine? Depends where you are. If in the UK or Europe and on a tight budget I would go for an old Philips/Assembleon Topaz, but only because I know the machines and where to buy them cheap, good freelance engineers and a good lo
