Consider: * Your machine supplier * Transition Automation http://www.transitionautomation.com * A couple of years ago, Darby I think, talked here on SMTnet about using a stainless steel blade that he had made. Basically, he provided his stencil fab

Hi Everybody, Mostly customer asked about the solder paste height checking after printing process.Is it compulsory to check the height if we are using stainless steel stencil and metal blades in fully automatic printer.Any technical answer to their

What kind of quality improvements could be expected by implementing MPM's Rheopump instead of using squeegee blades on a stencil printer?

We also had issues with paste sticking on our Trans Automation printer and switched to the Permalex blades. That made the biggest difference with release. They are a little pricey but it was worth it.

I've noticed that after we have switched to Transition Automation blades on our MPM screen printers that the stencils seem to be wearing out faster and I see a wavy rippling effect across the length of the stencil thats impacted by the squeege blade.

The obvious is size. Besides that, it depends on your screen printer. Some "smart heads" need to be retaught with the metal blades for each board. Some need to have the set-up programmed changed too. Angle of attack is something to double check a
