The quick frame does work well with the DEK 265, but we feel that tensioning is user dependent and introduces variation into the process on an operator to operator basis. Also, because tensioning occurs only on two sides (instead of four) this also i

Well, to be honest, we have not had any problems with this. We tested several old frames we had inhouse, and put them in our washers for 50 cycles, and they did not get any fluid in the frames. We simply attach the labels with sheet metal screws in

I wish you wouldn't have asked why! We had a rush job and the stencil maker used a frame (normally we don't use the frame type) and placed in the frame wrong so in order to get it to work we printed in both direction. So I thought maybe we should do

We currently use the VectorGuard stencils and love them. They are so easy to set and remove from the frame and weigh almost nothing. We get very good prints, we do 0402 and 16mil. We previously tried the Tetra system and were not happy due to the

We have been using the the DEK VG system now for 1 yr. Required stencil storage space is greatly reduced and stencil costs are lower. We've had some trouble with stencils not mounting flush in frame, but after a phone conversation with DEK engineerin

Thanks for the response! I thought is was odd the component vendor chose SAC for a lead frame finish. I am in the Military world, and things have been difficult to control from a lead-free standpoint. I have not been able to find any studies on SAC

Hi, We are getting a E-Hydra-1 Frame grabbing failed on caps and resistors and also a Light Curtain trigger X wagon. I spoke with mydata and they indicated the light curtain might be getting set off and causing the frame grabbing failure. I cleane

Thanks to all for their inputs. @Hexielectronics, I am now trying to assemble the board by attaching it to a frame and removing the frame while waving it. I plan to put the boards back on the frame after the board cools down. Could you explain more

The 4 places I've worked in SMT all had their own solutions for their own reason. I quit worrying about what worked best if what I had worked OK. I've only seen (or recognized, at least) tension issues on foils that had been saved well beyond a rea

How 'bout engrave / etch the fab number on the frame of the stencil?
