Pick and Place Machines from China, what are your shipping and Duty fees to US?

Thanks Mike for you thoughts on the human interface side and to xdave for the best photo of the machine I've yet to see.  These machines include SMT's newest GUI which looks promising.  As part of the back and forth dialog before purchase, I received some JPEG's of the interface which includes the one xdave has on on the screen in his photo and 4 others.  And for Mike, I would mention that there is a photo in the SMT880 spec that shows a graphic depiction of the circuit board which should be included with the SMT660.  I'v been told the SW is the same.

It is slightly concerning that they seem to have per-nozzle settings for things that should be feeder and/or component-type specific

Thanks Mike!

Will keep that in mind when I receive it and set it up.

Hi Proto, any updates on the machine?

Was hoping to get something along the same lines.  But maybe the SMT460 from yx.
How was the shipping and machine overall?

My old yamaha YV100-s are running a text based system.   Really hard to learn, but very good once you get to know its quirks.

Is that same system as the assembleon sapphire YV112?
