Wade,

Have you tried to call Selectronics, Bob Brill at 607-733-9164?
I think he specializes in Universal VCD/DIP.  He might has
sources to get you in contact with Amistar used brokers,

regards

Dear Technetters:
        We have two DIP in-serters (Amistar model CI3000) that we
are
looking for spare parts for.  Our technicians say they are having a
hard
time getting parts and service from Amistar.  Has anyone out
there had a
similar or much different experience?  These machines are
getting quite
old; is there a plan to stop supporting these systems?  Can
anyone
suggest a latest and greatest version (including phone number)
of
machine that could replace these?  Who are the major players in
the
inline or batch DIP in-serter market?

Thanks for your assistance in advance!
