In my opinion, the best solution is h-towers or similar dedicated tooling designed for each build. However, a quick cheap fix is to make templates to lay in the bottom of the centernest. If you have access to CAD software, you can print out the ger

I'm with SWAG. Print a 1:1 transparency of your stencil file and mark it where you want to place the pins. Place it in the product file and use it each time yor run that product. 1. Get the pcb into the print position. 2. Tape your transparency to t

I have worked with both Gridlock and conventional pin support mostly on DEK machines. Gridlock allows to reduce greatly changeover time in hi mix/low volume environment when switching sides on double sided boards. It also eliminates guesswork when ma

Hello All, We assemble boards which are small in size. We use nests for support when screen printing the boards. The nest gives support along the edges of the board. However we are bringing in a new product which has components very close to one edg
