Frameless Stencil Technology
Frameless stencil systems offer flexibility and versatility for your SMT process. By utilizing a single reusable master frame into which different stencil foils can be placed, frameless stencil systems are an excellent solution for many of todays SMT printing challenges. Modern frameless stencil systems like VectorGuard or our Apshen quick mount stencil system provide high quality, consistent, and cost-effective results as well as saving on valuable storage space.
- Flexibility and Versatility: Adapt to different SMT processes with ease.
- Cost-Effective: Utilize a single reusable frame for multiple stencil foils.
- Ideal for Low-Volume Productions: Perfect for small batches and prototypes.
- Efficient Stencil Changes: Quick and easy stencil swaps for frequent changes.
- High Quality and Consistency: Ensure reliable and consistent results.
- Modern Solutions: Benefit from advanced systems like VectorGuard and our Apshen quick-mount stencil system.
Frameless Stencil Offerings
Apshen
BlueRing’s own Apshen quick mount stencil is an effective, simple, frameless stencil, fully compatible with VectorGuard® systems. Apshen has a very reliable tension system, are quick to attach and detach, and make a solid connection for the life of the stencil. Overall, Apshen stencils are comparable to VectorGuard® stencils, work in the VectorGuard® system, and are more cost-effective than VectorGuard® stencils.
VectorGuard
The VectorGuard® stencil mounting system, developed by DEK, has been a popular frameless stencil choice since 2004. The revolutionary system utilizes a single reusable frame into which various stencil foils can be interchanged depending on the manufacturer’s needs. BlueRing carries the entire VectorGuard system, as well as VectorGuard stencils, and storage systems for easier, quicker access.
