Check out one of the board suppport that are currently available: Grid-Lok, Formflex and others. These systems are available for many models of printers and P&P. They automatically set up to any board, first or second side, and provide excellent su

Guy,s For about the same money, Grid-lok offers a fully automatic system that easily installs onto the printers and P&P. It can be set to your board instantly by pressing one button or triggered by the printer to set for each consecutive PCB. They

Gel flex is crap! If you put enough in to actually support the board, it bows. Apparently MPM knows this because they include hard pins with the set (kinda defeats the purpose huh)! I trialed the grid-lok and it worked fine and operators loved it. Th

Hi, We have a UP2000 with grid lok installed on it. We run several assemblies that have component pads close the edge of the board. The side clamps hold the stencil up off the board and we are either getting insufficients or excessive solder paste in

Asking the Grid Lok to flatten out the board is like asking the SMT Reflow Furnace to detab the panel. It was not designed to make up for the deficiencies of your fab supplier or your unsuported 1st reflow pass on the the chain conveyor. However, i

We worked with 3-4 revisions of the form-flex and they all had problems with stuck pins or pins that just wouldn't come out (due to leaks). The Form flex was pneumatic and hydraulic and worked well for awhile (2-3 weeks)but never seemed to last much

I would get a demo set of the form flex (they will probably give you it for at least a few weeks hopefully a month) and check it out. They could be much more reliable than when I tested them. I would definately take a working form-flex over a working
