Aculon To Feature #1 Global Stencil Coating at IPC APEX 2017

SAN DIEGO, Calif. - Aculon's NanoClear Stencil Wipes will be featured at Aculon's exhibit at the upcoming IPC APEX EXPO 2017 (booth 1805) in San Diego. From February 14th to 16th, Aculon will be in attendance to showcase the capabilities of the world's #1 stencil nanocoating.

As it has matured in the market, NanoClear has become recognized as the premier option for stencil users attempting to streamline their printing process. It's demonstrable ability to provide cost-savings coupled with its effectiveness at reducing bridging and dramatic improvement in print quality make it invaluable to the electronics industry.

Aculon NanoClear's technology uses Self Assembled Monolayers with Phosphonates ("SAMP's") that are compatible with all common types of stencil alloys, including but not limited to: Stainless steel, Electroform, Nickel, and E-polished stencils. As the monolayers are less than 5 nanometers thick and covalently bound to the surface, there is no risk of contamination of the flux.

"The availability of NanoClear fluxophobic treatment for stencils represents a significant opportunity for the stencil industry," said Edward Hughes, CEO of Aculon. "The ability to enhance the performance of stencils with an easy to apply wipe is critical as manufacturers push the boundaries of stencil printing demanding smaller apertures, better reliability and lower operating cost."
