@MagyarT -An Essemtec Tucano is a Reprint (possibly R29, maybe Mantis?) with a paintjob.. I could include Reprint in this list but 5 seemed like enough to start with. How did you find the Tucano? I haven't looked at EKRAs, they don't seem to be a ve

We have been using our Pillarhouse Handex Selective for just over a year now. We are finding the nozzles are lasting approx. 3-5 months with w/ SAC305 @ 305C. Generally don't have any issues with wetting and with good maintenance, proper use of th

MPM's had great software, we had a UP500 but it was slow. Our Dek's are very fast and the software is decent but not as good when it comes to some basic stuff like board stop offsets on images that are off center. It doesn't give clear information wh

I've got an old MPM Acella that I got very used. It had a few problems due to its age and being beaten up a bit but it's an excellent machine and after a bit of love and attention is working very well. Mpm / itw eae were very helpful with getting m

We purchased a Aqueuos machine that I would highly recommend to anyone. Before that, we used the ultrasonic cleaners with great success. We'd just run it for 5 minutes (whether the board is populated or not) and let it air dry under a blower and it w

Sorry I thought I had replied to this message. I will admit we took some things for granted in the past. More research has been done to determine how many heat cycles a component can have, if it can be submerged, etc. That said, if you don't have an

Europlacer did a presentation for us on their EP710 screen printers and I was pretty blown away. When we are making our next purchase, that is what I hope we choose. I've also heard great things about MPM but do not have the personal experience. Our

I dealt with Hanwha/Samsung machines for about a year and wasn't a huge fan. Software was always a bit half-baked in my opinion, and the support was as well. The hardware always felt very cheap to me as well. Don't get me wrong, they'll pick and p

This is where I think Hanwha/Samsung sorta sits apart from the others, as the maintenance and upkeep is almost zero. One of our SM482s has been going 10 years now, with essentially the only maintenance other than cleaning and filter changes, being g
