Hi out there, Can anyone tell me what is going on with Quad Systems and give me an opinion about whether or not to invest in more Quad equipment at this point in time? We have three machines and quit a bit of fixturing so we are thinking that because of this large investment (by our standards) it would be difficult to go to another manufacturer's equipment. But, if Quad is going down the tubes we will end up doing that anyway after having bought more equipment. We have a lot of trouble with placement accuracy and are not sure if this is the machines (is there something more dependable?) or something else we are doing wrong. I am not the engineer directly involved in the, but I do know a little bit about the process. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
