DALLAS, TX – StenTech® Inc., a leading global company specializing in SMT Printing Solutions, is excited to announce its participation at the SMTA Querétaro Expo & Tech Forum on Thursday, June 6, 2024. The company's local team in Mexico will be present to discuss the advanced StenTech BluPrint™ PVD (Physical Vapor Deposited) Surface Treatment, engineered to enhance SMT processes, improve stencil performance and longevity, and streamline production.

The BluPrint™ PVD Surface Treatment is designed to address the challenges of shrinking components and circuit boards in solder paste printing with laser-cut stainless-steel stencils. Meticulously developed to meet the intricate requirements of the semiconductor and EMS industry, StenTech BluPrint™ PVD has established itself as the premier choice in North America for evolving SMT demands.

Key Benefits:

• Consistent Thickness: Ensures uniform printing with a coating that remains resilient without degradation.
• Virtually Indestructible Coating: Outperforms traditional coatings, maintaining integrity and reducing maintenance costs.
• Enhanced Transfer Efficiency: The process applies the coating at approximately 1000 times less thickness compared to current alternatives, ensuring superior performance, especially in high-volume builds.
• Plasma Polishing: Initiates with plasma polishing to create smooth, high-gloss surfaces with enhanced corrosion resistance.

The revolutionary BluPrint™ process begins with plasma polishing to yield smooth, high-gloss surfaces, followed by the physical vapor deposition process which applies a thin film of material onto the substrate. This method results in a consistent, indestructible coating that significantly enhances transfer efficiency and stencil performance, outperforming nano-coatings.

StenTech BluPrint™ sets a new standard for stencil coating technology, offering unmatched performance, longevity, and cost-effectiveness for the SMT industry. Its innovative approach ensures reliable, uniform printing while reducing maintenance and replacement costs associated with traditional coatings.
