If you are talking about "low" volume another option you could consider is using a waffle tray. At a previous company we made low volume high value flexi-rigids. Like you, no-one would buy volume on reels. Luckily we had our own machine shop and we m

Hello, BUY Juki! Trust me on this one, I have experinced both and I may change careers if I find out I'm going to support another Quad line. There is a reason why that company struggles every year. Quad is not in the same market with the Fuji and
