Be very careful with rumors. MPM has bought SM-Tech. Quad and MPM now enjoy an excellent working relationship, but this is in the screen printer market not Quad's core SMT Assembly business.

I'm taking over a company that uses Topaz X's. Anyone have opinions, good or bad that they would care to share? It's a high mix, low-mid volume facility. Thanks...Rick

Not sure the exact birth of SMT, but I remember that move and it was 1941, not 1943, but who cares... Good luck on your quest for the birth of SMT... :)

Stu Leech Altos Engineering sleechatixdotnetcom. Alternately, search the fine SMTnet Archives by company for Altos Engineering to obtain contact infomation. [Be careful. Glendale is not in 'Engineering'. It's in 'AZ'.] Ask Stu about Croc-Clamps

The only reason I can see for doing this is: Apply more paste than a one-to-one round can provide. Square, diamond, etc... does not matter. Normally this is done for PTP applications but,... If it gets the job done, who cares.
