Why yes, I do have vacuum on my printer (God bless MPM!). I see what you're saying - use a pallet and have vacuum holes to hold the flex circuiut! Wow, it just got a little brighter in my cube! Oh, the light bulb above my head just went on. Thank

In my past life, I used a tooling plate by JNJ that is specifically made for MPM's. The theory is - it's an alphanumeric grid, like Battleship, where you figure out your setup once, and then document it. It worked with and fit nicely with the MPM H

In my opinion MPM is superior as far as programming the 2D inspection. It's fast, simple and reliable. The DEK has options like Formflex. The MPM only offers adjustable vacuum box. It's difficult. 2nd hand prices are not similar. We offer used/refurb

I'm looking to make a board support table fixture that is connected to the printer and uses the vacuum manifold of the printer. Printer is an mpm Accela

According to your web site, "engineering is working on refining a module that will be compatible with lower height systems found in other printers, placement machines, and dispensing equipment. Our list includes the following as of June 2001: MPM Pr

Hi everyone, I am trying to evaluate the cost of buying new equipment. One of the concerns is blade holders, stencil frames and board vacuum tooling. How difficult is to change from Dek to MPM or viceversa without changing all our tooling.

Dedicated tooling uses what MPM calls an "H" tower. You mount the board support plate (dedicated tooling) on top of the H tower. If boards are only single-sided SMT, meaning only components on one side, the board support plate is flat with vacuum hol

Good morning, MPM AP25 we have is equipped with dedicated vacuum support only, no side snuggers. Also we had a lot of issues with fine pitch paste deposition due to this poor support. Vacuum support can�t fix wrapped boards properly causing a lot of

if your vacuum is getting through your board then it sounds like your vacuum tooling is wrong. you shouldn't have vacuum points at areas of the board where there are PTH's or via's.

FYI: MPM does in fact offer alternate board support tooling than the vacuum box system. They have the X and Y snugger tooling, which clamps the board and uses magnetic support pins. If you are looking at a used UP2000, check to see what tooling it ha
