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

We have a my500 jet printer as well as a traditional screen printer. I had been extremely resistant to the idea of getting another screener, considering the jet printer to be superior in almost every way. After research and a biased presentation, I a

Seeing this graphic has me rethinking solder paste jetting as alternative to stencil printing. It seems it's only 2-3x faster 80k points per hour vs 28k. Wouldn't it be better to get 10 time pressure dispensers vs 1 solder jet?

We have some tape that is sticky on both edges. We use it when we refill reals with lose parts occasionally. I have no idea where it originally came from, but we want to order some more. All I can find is splice tape in shorter pieces. The tape we

The specifications are very similar. Is the key difference speed between them? MG1 being ~10% faster? Will the ipulse take abuse like MG1? MG1 is 2x more expensive, can buy 2 ipulse M2s instead of 1 MG1.

If you're lucky, it's just a bad boot sector. You can take the drive out, hook it up to another computer and copy it before trying to fix anything. Then try to reinstall programs if you have them. If you're unlucky the hard drive died. You might be a
