Hey, I just got off the phone with DEK. A 20 by 20 stencil will not drop right in, they do make a fixture so you can use a 20 by 20. Call DEK at 908-782-2363 talk to Ron. Later

We have been using unmounted stencils for 4 years. Easy to store and less expensive. Our stencil supplier gave us a pair of universal mounts for our printers. Watch the sharp edges. We haven't had any cuts but the potential is always there.

We have used them for 6 years now. No issues. The frames are not universal so you need to pick one vendor. IIT has done a great job for us and the standard turn is 2 days for laser cut for $150.00.

We also use IIT. I evaluated the skin guard treatment a few months back. It definately cleaned up the edge but not enough to make much difference if you mis-handle a bare stencil.

We tried splicing and found numerous problems with jamming. To make a long story short, as a rule we just don't do it. There are exceptions such as; we are short a part and need to use several very short pieces of tape and reel parts.

I will be purchasing a printer for our company. I'm considering a used printer with 2d post inspection. Is it worth putting money into the vision inspection or would we be better off buying a separate automatic optical inspection machine downline?

My company is relatively small but we have a SMT line. However, we don't have a stencil cleaner so I resort to a spray bottle of denatured alcohol, wiping it with a cloth and then using a toothbrush to brush the apertures. Finally another wipe down a

That hand held cleaner is 10K+. I have used one before. It works OK on paste, but doesn't do a thing for epoxy. 10 grand buys a lot of wipes and elbow grease.
