As mentioned above, Mycronic and Europlacer seem to be designed toward high mix so would consider them but would also like to consider a more traditional machine too. Right now I have around 220 feeder slots across two machines inline. Mycronic and E

I would stay away from dual line feeders. They make change overs hell. Each new board need much more time to re-locate the components on the feeders as you need to re-load them again instead to just move the feeder with loaded reel on new position.

"I would expect that any intelligent feeder enabled machine would pull the correct part no matter where it is placed on the machine (not forced by the program)" this is true, but you have to tradeoff the setup time vs production time per board. You

A pattern emerges, but really I think it means plan/optimise for your day/week not a single job. Our machine uses 10's, this means there's a significant chunk of the feeder that is not easily accessible if something like a brass shim gets stuck or f

If you are running FR4 PCBs and not something exotic like Kapton flex circuits, I would go with the Dek 265 any day of the week. You will find that Dek supports the fully automatic printer much better than the semiautomatic printers like the 260, 24
