Hi Sophia, I`m responsible of SMT line and we solved this problem with a complete automatic solder paste printer machine. In the past we had problem with off alignment and solder height too.... at that time we used a semi-auto printer machine and w

| Just out of curiosity, who's holding the market for the semi-automatic screen printers these days aside from Transition Automation? I know MPM offers some printers in that price range, but are they holding any real market share in that niche? | |

When considering a new semi-automatic stencil printer, for low volume high mix production, could anyone elaborate on the benefits of vertical lift-off versus a Clamshell design? Money can be saved with a Clamshell design, but what specific limitatio
