in my opinion - Fuji - the best choice. Assembleon and Siplace torment you with their software) These machines - a lower level.

That’s a pretty general statement. You would need more specifics to make a good choice. The question is like asking what kind of car should I buy Ford, Chevy or Dodge and leaving out Toyota, Honda etc. What are the volumes ? What is the mix ? What models are you looking at ? If buying new why limit your choices to those three manufactures

And Fuji doesn't torment you with software ? Hmmm... Fuji machines are mechanically great. Flexa/F4G/MCS is a pain in the ass unless your techs really know what's goin on.

We are switching from all Fuji to Juki. I won't say anything else about that because people on the forum start getting excited and we don't want that.

KhHrpr has it right as far as a starting point. Have to know what you going to be building before selecting the machines that will take you there with the least amount of issues and/or limitations.

SrTech has it right, too. No excitement allowed in the forums!!
