Just my two chips /Inge Hi, We are planning to purchase a SMT pick and place machine for proto builds and NPI runs. We are looking for something in range of low to mid volume build (max may be 1000 nos. build). The important criteria for selection is --- 1. Base cost ---- range of 30,000 USD to 50,000 USD 2. Should be able to place chip components, odd shape parts, QFPs, BGAs. 3. Since we plan to buy one machine, so should be able to have high numbers of feeders which can be loaded in. Appreciate your valuable feedback and recommendations .
