to get our times dialed, we just taped the stouffer strip onto the screens... it holds good enough to get a good exposure time calc with just a bit of tape on each side.

We love ours, just got it about a month ago.

Dialed in around 0 vac and 4 sec expose for white mesh...can't even tape the film on as fast as it exposes.
I spend too much money on equipment...

7k, almost double some competitors...but if you take a look at the competition...you'll see why. We went from halogen 8 minute exposure to approx 15 seconds with vac down time. Cost savings wise this machine pays for itself in our shop in a few months.

Not saying that they won't tremendously cut down exposure times...just probably won't do it as fast or have the same quality.

It's in the screen room awaiting exposure calibration and testing

After a month with this unit I must say it has worked perfect. We are still getting used to the speed of exposure since everything we burn is 12 seconds and less.
No problem with emulsion breakdown due to full exposure. M&R has built one fine unit.
