Subject: Re: solder paste - cnc dispenser - software

Hello Stefan,

This is done by empirical testing/experimentation at first, using the
canned cycle and/or macro params. Then it will be repeatable.

I already explained the screw. With the air pressure syringe types,
the timing can be controlled using G04, which is a dwell in
milliseconds.

Hope this helps,

Ballendo

P.S. I have never used an excel program to create a toolpath. Others
have had great success doing so; I've just never found it necessary.
