We have been using unmounted stencils for 4 years. Easy to store and less expensive. Our stencil supplier gave us a pair of universal mounts for our printers. Watch the sharp edges. We haven't had any cuts but the potential is always there.

We have used them for 6 years now. No issues. The frames are not universal so you need to pick one vendor. IIT has done a great job for us and the standard turn is 2 days for laser cut for $150.00.

We also use IIT. I evaluated the skin guard treatment a few months back. It definately cleaned up the edge but not enough to make much difference if you mis-handle a bare stencil.

DEK have this new system called VectorGuard, which are remountable foils with protective edges - worth a look and may save the odd finger!

Thanks guys, I have been looking into the 'vectorguard' system. It actually looks pretty good,though I have only seen it on their sites. Has anyone tested it? Apparantly DEK and Tannlin make it.

If you are interested in building or having someone build a storage unit, I will send you a photo of what I use. Let me know. Doug

I myself am a graduate of the Electrical Engineering Technology program at SUNY Binghamton in Binghamton, NY, now known as Binghamton University. I would strongly recommend this university for your consideration.

Is this problem with local fiducials or global? Is the problem on the same equipment? Is this a cad file o centroid? How are you measure the coordinates?

Hi Chris, About marks detect: If you have vision system you can recognize the fids and not center them manual. If only camera you have to put the center of the camera in the center of the mark.
