Vinit- I hate to burst your bubble regarding the FCM-1's but they will go down in history as probably the biggest platform failure in this business...based on re-sale value. For a million dollar machine to reach a level of re-sale of only $10K-$20K

Chris, Have you considered Fuji? The robustness of Fuji is proven. I have recently done floor space analysis and cost per placement/sqr foot studies. I have also performed ROI studies on these machines. The new CP7 machine from Fuji outperforms th

There is a Fuji web site that you could use. But perversely they send you your login. This takes about 3 weeks to arrive usually... in my case it took 2 months. FCM's i find to be quite inflexable... If your doing high volume put it on them anything

Depends on which Assembleon machine, aye? The "GEM" line, Topaz & Emerald, stuff is Yamaha- Japan, which I consider more along the lines of Juki and i-Pulse (Tenyru/Yamaha), and maybe Samsung. The "Power" line, ACM & FCM, on the other hand is pure Du

If pure speed is the main requirement then I would still not go with Turrent technolgy machines. The FCM from Assembleon (Now AX) is the fastest machine in the industry and consumes much less floor space then any Turret. Gantry machines such as Siem
