Transition Automation has a new squeegee holder which is said to improve SMT printing by incorporating a self-cleaning wiper system. 

Reduces solder paste sticking by way of two small articulating wiper wires. Results may vary depending on the particular viscosity and rheology of the solder paste.  In some cases, users may benefit by altering their solder paste formulations to be more sticky and viscous (which improves printing), without the additional paste sticking worries. The new devices is offered across the full Permalex metal squeegee product line, and may be retrofitted on most popular SMT printing machines. 

No additional hookups or machine interefacing required, is passively actuated by the motion of the squeegee holder.
