I've been impressed with Universal Instruments in Binghamton, NY. We've been working on a possible SMT line with them because they do everything from soup to nuts. The quality/service so far has been great (and to Dave F's comment, I believe they've

Anyone out there using solder paste (dispense) on through hole technology parts? I would like to know how it's working out for you. Which method or technique are you using? Have you ever tried to dispense on the component side and place through the d

It depends how you value things. I know lots of companies just look at equipment costs, but if you include development time, you may find it very expensive: and it may not work anyway. Generally you can by a tru AOI Sanning system for about �35K and
