I'm not sure of the timeframe with which you have to work, but I'd consider sending the frame and mounted stencil back to DEK for repair. I'm not a huge fan of these systems, because I believe consistancy in the process is critical, and these system

We have some Vectorguard stencils and frames. I am having issues with one of the frames. And need a little guidance. A stencil is on the frame, and we can't get it off, the operator heard a pop while putting the stencil on the frame, now we hear a

Spend the extra 10 dollars and buy space saver frames. Problem solved.

We currently use the VectorGuard stencils and love them. They are so easy to set and remove from the frame and weigh almost nothing. We get very good prints, we do 0402 and 16mil. We previously tried the Tetra system and were not happy due to the
