Leading PCB solutions provider, MacDermid Alpha, has unveiled a range of advanced PCB stencils designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern printing processes. With a focus on fast response, high accuracy, and exceptional printing performance, these stencils offer significant improvements for electronic manufacturers.

The lineup of MacDermid Alpha's PCB stencils includes various innovative solutions tailored to specific needs:

• ALPHA CUT Laser Cut Stencils: These stencils, leveraging MacDermid Alpha's expertise in stainless steel, laser stencil-manufacturing technology, provide highly repeatable and accurate printing performance. They have proven best-in-class positional accuracy and aperture tolerance, ensuring optimal paste transfer efficiency for precise and consistent paste deposits.
• ALPHA CUT HR2 Laser Cut Stencils: As an enhancement to the laser cut stencil line, these stencils offer improved printing performance. With increased volume repeatability and higher print yields, they excel in solder paste transfer efficiency, contributing to enhanced overall manufacturing processes.
• ALPHA Precision Milled Stencils: Designed to facilitate optimal control of paste deposits for boards with varying component sizes, these stencils provide greater flexibility in transitioning between different thicknesses. They deliver improved surface roughness values and minimize paste smearing, ensuring accurate and reliable paste application.
• ALPHA iStencil Online Ordering System: MacDermid Alpha introduces an advanced online ordering system that allows customers to place orders directly and track their status. This user-friendly platform provides complete visibility into the stencil process, from order placement to delivery, along with a comprehensive history of all stencil orders. Secure storage of stencil data and files ensures seamless collaboration and easy access.
• ALPHA tensoRED Master Tensioning Frame: This revolutionary tensioning frame eliminates the need for air pressure, reducing maintenance costs and enhancing reliability. With improved manual handling for operators, the tensoRED frame further optimizes the total cost of ownership for stencils.
• ALPHA Nickel CUT Stencils: With extensive knowledge, experience, and service at the forefront of stencil technology, MacDermid Alpha's Nickel CUT Stencils offer a longer stencil life compared to stainless steel alternatives. These stencils feature a material formula optimized for laser cutting, providing rapid turnaround to meet even the tightest delivery requirements.
• ALPHA Tetrabond Frameless Stencil Foils: Taking "frameless" stencil technology to a new level, these foils eliminate the image 'float' associated with mesh-mounted stencils. The absence of sharp edges makes ALPHA Tetrabond foils safer to handle, while their excellent rigidity ensures exceptional performance.

Accompanying the stencil range are ALPHA Stencils Accessories, which are based on a unique blend of advanced technology and specialist knowledge of the solder paste printing process. These accessories offer practical solutions for rework, enhanced optical inspection, and flexibility in achieving the right solder paste volume.

MacDermid Alpha's new PCB stencils represent a significant advancement in the field, providing electronic manufacturers with cutting-edge solutions to address printing challenges. These stencils deliver fast and accurate printing performance, maximizing paste transfer efficiency while minimizing defects and maintenance requirements.
