Tony Although I agree in principle with Dean that 45 Degrees would be ideal, most of the squeegees I have worked with have been 60 Degrees to the stencil surface. This seems to work best with metal squeegees when printing HASL boards, because the sl

We are currnetly looking at switching form squeegee's to the Dek ProFlow head system. Just looking for feedback on the performance compared to squeegee's. Also here the ProFlow reduces the amount of waste of solder paste. Can anyone reflect on these

DEKs are the best. They blow all others away. Sure the Pro-Flow does tend to waste paste, and you do get some blow by, but once you realize you have the best screen printer available, you can live with trivial things like this. Squeegees are for i

I have a DEK Horizon 02i. Is it easy to swap between Squeegee and cartridge system just by installing the Proflow head assembly?

Amen to that! You wanna be a window washer, then use squeegees!

OK, I'll bite. How you can set a stencil down on a printed board and run a squeegee across it (even if it's a proflow head, it's still a squeegee, right?) without disturbing the printed paste?

Transistion Automation makes a great squeegee blade. I have found that it is superior to the standard steel/titanium blades generally used in production. It is made from gun barrel blue steel. It is more expensive than standrd squeegee blades, but i

I'd like to hear from anyone using the PumpPrint stencils to dispense/print solder paste. Are you using ProFlow or just squeegee blades? How often do you have to clean?

Why isn't it more popular? DEK's marketing materials mention all the benefits with no drawbacks. It sounds like it uses less paste, is more accurate and easier to use. How many customers revert back to squeegee blades?
