Proper fiducials are going to be more accurate than drill holes. Since drilling is a separate step in the PCB fab process, the registration to the PCB isn't as accurate as the copper etching process which forms the fiducials. In a pinch, it can be u

If it's a plated hole though, you can use the ring around it, which should be as accurate as a copper fiducial. just know that any plated hole with a trace coming off of it will have a "tail" and it might throw the computer off when scanning.

A stencil prints thousands of apertures in one squeegee stroke. Stencils can be bought for less than 200.00 Even in a prototyping application I cannot see where a machine like that could be cost effective.

With saving time and space. With having the possibility to change any aperture at any time. With having the chance to apply different deposits on the same assembly or the same part. A stencil printer is not for free as well and it needs consumables t

That's the crux of it. We have volume and prototype lines & use a lot of stencils, so would be better for us just to get a stencil cutting machine for a similar price. However if we just did low volume /prototypes then we could make a case for it.

How many feeders do you need and what is the price of each width? Factor that into your equation. Onsite service is coming from ??? Annual fees for tech support, etc.? Does it handle matrix trays? You might need that in the future.
