BluPrint™ CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposited) surface treatment. Engineered to enhance SMT processes, this advanced coating offers a comprehensive set of benefits that collectively contribute to improved sten- cil performance, longevity, and the overall quality of the SMT assembly process, streamlining production. In the SMT industry, precise stencils and tool-
ing are indispensable. These components demand meticulous design and prompt delivery, leaving no room for compromise on quality, speed, or reliabili- ty. Any issues or delays can lead to substantial costs in an environment where timing is para- mount, and faults are expensive. StenTech’s Photo Stencil division excels in offering unmatched qual-
ity, specialized products and reliability. Contact: StenTech, 8350 N Central Express- way, Suite 416, Dallas, TX 75206 % 603-505-4470
