Hello: We have used our Phillips Topaz on a number of volume jobs and been very pleased. A while ago it became apparent that the vision LED's were growing dimmer as evidenced by having to adjust light intensities upward for various components in so

Even though I cannot answer your question about a good Six Sigma training course, our company has had training in lean which I felt was helpful. You stated that one of your goals was to reduce cost/waste. That goal seems to lend better to a lean ma

Not the best situation in the world, but you know that. Check with printer equipment suppliers [eg, DEK, MPM, etc] for a product called "Stencil Clean Wipes." Back in the old days, we'd: * Wipe the stencil with a solvent soaked wipe * Put the sten
