When was the last time your ELA was calibrated? I had an operator ding the camera some how and the machine acted very much as you describe afterwards. A camera calibration corrected the problem.

What r u using for fiducials ? fids? pads? thru-holes? video model? What r u using to print the paste? squeege blades? proflow? paste puck? Why r u using Step Mode ?

Make sure whatever you are using for a fid. is apart from any other pads or apertures. It'll grab a pad/aperture above or below (in auto mode) and screw up your print. We saw this alot when using pads for fids on DEKs.

Double check your supports. When run in auto this occurs a lot quicker than step mode. Just a thought.

Also check your belts/tensions/pulleys and motors on the camera axis. If you are getting any slippage then the camera will not be in the position the encoder says it is. It may still read the fids but will produce an offset.

I have a DEK ELA and here is what happens. I print a board after going through the step and it is a dead on print. Then, with another print it will be off in Auto mode (sometimes up and sometimes down, seems to just be up and down not left to right

I know you said you checked your clamps but another look will do no harm. we had a very similar issue a while back, and it turned out that the plastic shim under the chase clamp magnet was damaged. This caused the chase clamps not to release properly

Hallo all, I have recently had possibility to work with DEK265. I have met with problem poor print definition (no sharp edges). I used stencil 150 thickness, metal squuegees. I moved than the same stencil, squeegee and parameters to DEK nifinty and

hi, we use pump print stencil and have problem with cleaning.we clean the stencil handling, using zestron301, but in the holes stay adhesive.Take a test with ultrasonic cleaner but resalt is not good.

Hi fellow problem solvers,... We suspect a planarity problem with our 6 mil wide flex circuit pads having height variance of up to 2 mils after print and reflow. This is contributing to a placement skew with our TAB bonder... Has anyone had any succe
