Impressive Product

I discovered I-Extruder via Kickstarter and was really impressed with how well designed and thought out the product was. Communication throughout the campaign was impeccable. There have been 27 updates to date, and each one provided additional information about the status of build process. The team also handled a small customer service issue for me, which was the result of a mistake I made when completing a form. It was resolved quickly and politely.

I just recently received the finished product, and I'm very impressed with its build quality and packaging. I don't do much surface mount soldering, so I'm brainstorming the perfect project to give it a more thorough test.

Hands down, one of the best Kickstarter campaigns that I've supported.

The best tool that I have ever owned.

The best tool for PCB assembly that I have ever owned.
Fully configurable with cool and user friendly menu and it is almost absolutely silent.
And it also work for SMD components placement in pick and place mode!!!
That is a really neat idea to combine two device into a single one.

I do PCB prototyping for living, and my previous pneumatic dispenser (Chinese) , with air compressor, was a real nightmare.

For those who are interested, I strongly recommend you the get "advanced" pack. Pick&Place pen and the foot switch are really good addition to I-Extruder.

Well made product that fills an old gap in the maker / hobby market

Received the i-Extruder pack last week. It was well packed with some extras already included in the base package (pick and place piston and cups). The tool was also smaller than expected. This is good news, because it makes it better suited to use under a microscope. First setup was easy, but it takes some time to find the optimal settings for the material used. It's a good idea to use the paste sold (for a reasonable price) by the designers because setup other solder paste was a bit of a hit and miss. Also the offered paste comes pre-filled in a compatible dispenser which also saves the filling chore. After finding the optimal settings the operation is pretty straight forward, altough people with large(r) hand or fingers would benefit from getting a foot pedal as the dispensing buttons are close together. All in all a good product for an affordable price that smartly fills a gap in the hobby market.

I love things that are well made

I-Extruder dispenser is very well engineered and the build quality is simply amazing.
it's a real time-saver for PCB prototyping. The plastic tapered tips that comes with it , are easy to use for solder paste dispensing. I've already used i-extruder for 0805 and 0603 components with perfect results.
Very good product, i highly recommend it !

Super produit

Je vais pas dire que ce produit a changé ma vie mais pas loin. En tout cas celle de mes oreilles car le compresseur du systeme que j'utilisai precedemment etait plutot agressif !
La solution permet une depose precise et rapide de patte pour de petits protos. Elle n'est pas encombrante.
Seul petit point d'attention le produit peut chauffer fortement meme eteint si le pas a pas et dans une mauvaise position. Donc penser a le debrancher hors utilisation.

Great product!

This dispenser tool is fantastic! The quality of all components, including the optional XYZ stand is very high, the tool is versatile, well manufactured and easy to use. Although it looks pretty bulky on the pictures, it is actually lightweight and well balanced. I can highly recommend this tool.

Tout simplement MAGNIFIQUE!

Très content de mon achat.
Le rapport qualité-prix est imbattable! D'ailleurs, il n'y a pas d'autre alternative sur le marche.
I-Extruder est un distributeur extrêmement silencieux. Prise en main facile et précision remarquable.
Un outil tout simplement MAGNIFIQUE!
Je recommande vivement pour les bricoleurs, aussi que pour les pros comme moi.

It is the best tool I have been waiting for

I am very happy to use I-Extruder with my electrical hobby life. Usability of I-Extruder is best than the other competing products.

Most strong point is that possible to supply small amount of solder onto small PAD. Furthermore、it is Small, light, stable, quiet, multi function, Reasonable price.

Thank you Artline team.

Best machinerie to becommentariëren happy

Almost inmissible now already. How did we do it all years without this very small handy machine. I like the extruder very much, it is making working with my small smd components so much easier and more comfortabel. One of my best kickstarter bus!

Quality product.

I'm really happy with my I-Extruder... presently reworking my product assembly techniques to incorporate using this tool into the processes. It will save a boatload of time in the assemply of a couple of the pinball boards that I sell. Hats off to the team who created it - your dedication delivered a quality product!
