I need advice for locating 23 Gull wing LED's (all in a straight line) in the x,y, and z axis for a SMT PCB. It is a Hewlett Packard LED (P/N HMLA-QH00-01). The application uses a CCD to detect the position of a ball which floats in a resevior for

Our Electrovert UPK445 needs a new solder pump motor. The Machine is down. I'm taking a huge chance with Specnor. If the motor doesn't come in or if it doesn't work, then I'm dead. They told me I'd have the motor next day. They kept trying to sell me
