Absolutely right and furtermore, when does one have a glance of the future whith all spectrum of its perfomance; without looking in the past? Maybe You will catch me, despite my english gramma (or maybe totally un-understood). We have seen this befo

Exactly. Poor Olas is pulling his hair out over an issue that has no business being "standardized". The SMEMA guys with apparently way too much time on their hands couldn't simply stop at the communications protocol and leave it at that....they had t

I don't think so *g* � talked to a mydata distributor and even they said this machine won't make sense in any way. Price shall be several 100K USD. Much slower than a normal printer. And the printhead needs to be replaced very often and costs 2K. For

I have a couple of customers I showed this to and they were impressed with the capability but didn't know the price yet. Reason being was the control of the amount of paste applied to the pads could be adjusted. They both said they had problems with

How can anyone say that it isn't cost effective when there is no price set? (at least none that i've seen). And to Erik, not to be rude, but I can't imagine any employee or distributor of MYDATA talking bad about a product that they will sell and or

BTU have been around since the start of SMT, with ancient TRS14's still running today with no problems, and bucket loads of VIP's, Paragons & Pyramax's doing good service. Wouldn't use anyhting else (Did like the new Vitronics-Soltec, but couldn't b

for sure it's an excelent topic, in Mexico we've used almost any brand in the market (Research, Heller, Electrovert, Rhem, Vitronics, Conceptronics, BTU) and after all those names, we could see that Vitronics is a good opton, good service, not too mu

We may also be in the market for an oven that will be cabable of doing lead free assemblies. I am assuming that this thread is based on ovens that will be capable of lead free. How many zones would you guys recommend for leadfree. I have heard of req

Lead Free profiles can be achieved on 4 zone ovens on relatively simple boards (I did this for a year). The 4 zones can be a bear to get right for a really optimum profile. Assemblies with significant Delta T designs can be nearly impossible with 4
