I wouldn't count Siemens as a major player for very long in this business. They are attempting to sell out to Samsung at this time.

Wow!... Fastek: where did you get that idea! Siemens selling out to Samsung... sheesh... (where's my heart-medicine) That would send a major shock through the SMT universe.

Thanks for the response. We have checked everything except the stepper motor, which we will try. But as we were checking everything now we've developed a software (?) problem. A msg comes up "can't find DSP".

Support bars, so essentially the board is sitting ontop of beams that make a table. Fully supported with no soft spots

It makes sense if you think about it. Siemens was a dead company ready to fold up their tents back in the 80's and early 90's. To their credit they stuck to their platform...got somewhat lucky and the market sort of came to them as the wave of users

In the US, these OEMs have this information, becuase they participate in a market study where they all post sales to a single market study. Check with them directly, and they may share this data with some degree of accuracy. I'd be shocked if Sieme
