Our shop builds lowere qty (2-40 pcs) high complexity electronics. When we get in to bd counts greater than 10 pcs with a high number of placements (3-4K) missings and polarity are issues that bite us. We have looked at different simpler scanner type

| Dave, | Sounds like you have material issues. Been there, done that. Tried 'em all. The best, longest lasting material I've found is called Durostone. It's made by a Roeschling, and most of the big fixture cutting houses now offer it as an option
