Jim, To my understanding this printer is formerly known as an SMTech printer. The story behind this printer, from what I was told by former colleges, is, open it up, take a look at the inside. Does it look like a DEK 265? I hear that this printer

We've had our SigmaPrint 500 machine since March 98. After two months of what seemed like being a beta site, SMTech (at that time) took care of all our issues (software) and now we are very happy with the machine. We haven't had a problem with it s

Yes, there is a way to print solder paste into through holes as well as for SMT devices. I suggest you contact Alden Johnson at MPM in Franklin, MA (website info at http://www.mpm.com) about what he has done here. The trick in getting the solder pa

The MicroFlex is not really new. Its the UltraPrint 100 re-engineered and improved. UltraPrint 100 / SMTech 100 has been around for many years. I don't believe the DEK 248 offers a Stencil Wiper option. I worked on MicroFlex machines. Vision system i

Phil, I used to print solder paste on 2" X 2" and 3" X 3" 96% Alumina substrates all the time. I used standard solder printers and stencils. Screens are difficult to use and don't print well. You can use a stencil on a DeHart, CW Price, or AMI Pr

Hello Andy, When did you receive the reply "that they hadn't had any for years"? I would be interested to hear who sent you this. I'm a founder director of Sigmaprint and previously a employee of both SMTech and Speedline Technologies. I can curre

Seeing as you say you only have a small amount of cash ... I'd also consider a semi-auto printer where you align a golden board, set up the two cameras by boxing or overlaying a pad etc, and then use the vernier adjustment to get each pcb to align wi
