Christian Koenen stencils available from Essemtec

SMD, stepped, wafer and LTCC stencils are produced according to customer requirements.

The laser-cut stencils have a slightly conical aperture at the printed circuit side, which makes them ideal for paste and adhesives printing.

Christian Koenen has developed an electro polishing procedure that makes apertures smooth for an optimal paste release after printing.

The stencils can be supplied with a nano coating, which improves the trigger performance.

Koenen often uses Essemtec's SP900 printer in its application centre for process investigations and improvements.

Essemtec Benelux delivers stencils for all common printers and tension systems, such as DEK Vectorguard, Stencilman, Zelflex or Alpha Tetra.

The product range for special applications includes Nickel, Pumpprint, electro-formed and etched stencils.

For stencil-production, customers can choose from a 24-hour, a six-hour or an overnight-service.

Essemtec Benelux's product range includes machines, devices and accessories for all production processes in electronics and photovoltaics such as printers, placement machines, dispensers, soldering and curing furnaces.

Essemtec Benelux will showcase the new product line for the first time at Electronics Automation 2009 in Utrecht.
