The Electronic Self-Cleaning Metal Squeegee is said to provide a solution to solder paste dripping and clogging. Reportedly improves maintenance of the printer area, with less contamination of floors and surrounding SMT printer components when removed from printing machine. Said to enable hands-off, automatic squeegee cleaning of solder paste (including lead-free solder paste). Incorporates an odometer that counts the number of prints the squeegee has experienced, and allows the user to set a limit, after which a red light will flash indicating that the limit has been reached. Is available for EKRA, DEK, MPM, and Panasonic printers. Retrofits for other printer models are available on request.
