Your solder paste is talking to you, follow its message. Listen to the paste. Be at one with the paste. If you insist on ignoring the message of the paste, add more paste, if you just need to complete the last board or so, but you really should ju

We have a Hoover_Davis label feeder. We use on size label for most of our products so it works well for us. It's a well-built machine. We had some problems with the label in particular, so we had to buy from a different source. It runs great. If you
