Has anybody else tried using stencils coated with Nano ProTek? I did find that I could reduce my cleaning frequency and squeegee pressure, which should help to increase stencil life, but I'm finding that it seems to wear off quicker than I thought i

Pick and place is not my area but I did have a customer a while ago with a similar problem. He did try different nozzles and air pressure. They use Nano protek on thier stencils. He wiped the nozzles with Nano Protek and the problem dissappeared. Onl

You may also look into a product called Nano Protek. This is an application that helps reduce your cycles and increase productivity. In some cases beter paste deposition has been recorded. Contact your stencil vendor or I can give you information.

See if you can get a sample of Dek's Nano Protek. We use it on all our fine pitch stencils. I'd say it's kind of like car wax for the aperture walls. They operators really like it a bug me every day to order more if we run out.

Hey SWAG, any idea where that Nano Protek goes, that you have to replace it? (and I am not talking about polishing up wheels) Is it being scrubbed off of the stencil during the print process, and over time it must be replenished? Sorry a bit off top

I would be careful with trying Rain-X. Rain-X is a silanol treatment that is not durable. That is why you need to reapply it on a windshield many times. Also you could contaminate the paste as it will come off the stencil during the printing. From

The paste is going to roll as before because you have to apply the coating on the bottom side of the stencil. Also the coating that wears out will most probably go to your stencil cleaning paper as that the process wehn you actually have friction wit

Sr.Tech, do you evaluate the SPI data to capture any wear out of the stencils/coating?

I received the same message for the 2nd, 3rd & 4th papers and have gotten SMTnet technical people working on correcting the issue Thanks for making us aware. [davefatsmtnet.com] Effect of Nano-Coated Stencil on 01005 Printing [https://smtnet.co
