Hello , any specific insights about printing on flex circuits?

I cannot report having experience with 0201 printing applications on flex circuits. Generally, I would be concerned with handling of the flex substrate. A carefully designed vacuum capable custom tooling fixture would likely be required to ensure p

Mike: We have provided many carriers for flex circuit applications to facilitate processing through screen print, pick-and-place and reflow and, in many cases, eliminating the need for taping the flex circuit to the carrier. Please contact me and w

If your having placement problems are you having printing alignment problems?

I worked on MicroFlex. All axis move via electric motor drive. Carraige reapatability is +/- 0.0005" (12 micron). Cameras position more easily on linear bearings than the swivel type. The alignment accuracy and repeatability easily supports sub-20mil

We have been processing a 3 and 5 up flex array for nearly four years on pallets and have had a pretty steep learning curve. Make sure you have vacuum holes in your pallet for the screen printing process, also work with your support block vendor to

SPM is superior in terms of technology and application. SPM has larger print area, up to 20� x 19", vs. 17.7� x 15.7� for the MicroFlex. MicroFlex is microprocessor controlled while the SPM has a PC. SPM can print down to 12mil (0.3mm) fine pitch no

The MicroFlex is not really new. Its the UltraPrint 100 re-engineered and improved. UltraPrint 100 / SMTech 100 has been around for many years. I don't believe the DEK 248 offers a Stencil Wiper option. I worked on MicroFlex machines. Vision system i

SPM is superior. SPM has larger print area, up to 20� x 19", vs. 17.7� x 15.7� for the UltraPrint 100. UP100 is microprocessor controlled while the SPM has a PC. The SPM cameras can be positioned more rapidly and with greater accuracy than UP100's.

You should be able to get a one-print Mylar frame for the SMTech 90 machine from SigmaPrint, http://www.sigmaprint.co.uk Yes, with vision you store images of two features such as solder lands or fidicial marks from opposite corners of the board. With
