Mar 02, 2026 Transition Automation, Inc., the leading provider of high performance metal squeegee blades and holder systems, continues to advance SMT printing performance with a full range of Permalex® Squeegee Solutions designed specifically for Fuji GPX platforms.
As stencil printing requirements become more demanding, Transition Automation is delivering smarter, more refined solutions, including its upgraded Universal Holder and Blade Assembly featuring patented Soft-Touch paste retainers.
This next-generation holder system offers:
-
Lightweight, rigid construction for improved handling and machine performance
-
Custom lengths available with short lead times
-
Color options in Blue, Silver, Red, and Green for process identification
-
A flat, hole-free blade design for simplified installation and quick replacement

These advanced Permalex® solutions will be on display at IPC APEX 2026, Booth #2603, where attendees can explore how optimized squeegee technology directly enhances print performance and reduces total cost of ownership.
