Transition Automation Improves Permalex Double-Edge Squeegee Assembly for Yamaha YSP
Nov 15, 2022 | Transition Automation, Inc. today announces an update to its double-edge squeegee assembly for Yamaha YSP SMT printer platforms. The addition of end-anchor points to the bonded Permalex blade improves the life of the assembly by preventing the boundary limited bonding that can cause separation.
Transition Automation Introduces Universal Holder for Ersa SMT Printers
Oct 20, 2022 | Transition Automation, Inc. releases a new Universal Permalex Holder and Blade Assembly to install on Ersa SMT Printers.
Transition Automation Introduces Updated Holder Design for Better Blade Support
Feb 25, 2022 | Transition Automation today releases an updated holder design to improve blade support and simplify maintenance and blade changes for SMT printer operators. This new revision increases the holder width supporting the blade, which eliminates the support shim normally included with the holder assembly. This change also allows for faster printing speeds and better blade wiping as well as eliminating the problem of solder paste becoming lodged between the shim and blade after long use. An additional upgrade is the change to alloy steel flat head screws (vs. stainless steel). Alloy steel screws are less prone to stripping and deformation, making it easier to replace blades.
