I'm not sure eyesight is needed to check for blade damage. Close your eyes. Run your finger along the edge of the blade. If you feel any roughness or "catching" as your finger drags, then you have a damaged blade. SPI would tell you this as well,

Yes, it is important to ensure blade pressure over stencil is uniformly distributed across the entire length of blade. Such is possible only if the stencil is firmly supported from below, which during printing is done by the presence of the PCB itsel

I have always gone with blade length equal to board width plus 2 inches - 1 inch either side. Is there any technical reason that I could not use a longer blade, say 2.5 inches on either side?

Important mainly for consistency of pressure across the entire board length... But also quite abusive of stencils to use longer blades. Especially since (most people) when using the longer blades will bump the pressure up even higher to minimise th

Hi everybody, In our company we wanted to add to our maintenance a method of detecting when a blade is damaged so we can change it before it affects our printing process. I have talked with our squeegee manufacturer for recommendations but they have
