Hi I've used the following: SAP Connect & Go (or SAP in a box - designed for smaller companies)- despite the description a LOT of set up work, but not bad once you get the hang of it. Costs lots to change things though. Tetra CS3 - YUK! MFG Pro -

Intuitive has been somewhat helpfull in fixing the bugs. Thier main goal has been to release version 8 though. My understanding is that it is 100% .NET where the 7.xx versions were not quite there. The 8.00 version will be released soon but, it is o

I can't tell you what's good, but I can tell you what's bad. We use JD Edwards. To give you an idea of how well it is suited to the electronics environment, most of the help screens, should you be able to find them, use recipes for bread and food

The most effective cleaning of high solids RMA has been with a good saponifier (5-7%) [eg, Kyzen Aquanox, Lonox formulations, Envirosense Envirogold, etc ] in deionized water, 150F, with 2-3 DI water rinses. Dull solder connections when you do spot

Hi Everyone, I am in the process of selcting a new wave solder machine for our small company. We currently run 2 Technical Devices (18" Nu Era Jr. dual wave). I considered converting one to Lead free. It seems for alittle more we could have a machin
