Stencils ordered together with the boards
eC-registration compatible stencil
The stencils that fit our eC-stencil-mate and eC-stencil-fix are called eC-registration compatible stencils and are produced with special tooling holes according to the unique eC-registration-system. The eC-registration-system is a simple pin registration system offering high accuracy and an ease of use.
To accommodate the tooling holes required on the PCB to fit the eC-registration system, the PCBs need a border and must be ordered in a panel. For single circuits, we make a 1-up panel for you.
Custom stencil
A custom stencil is made from your paste layer. You can define online the borders you require on each side (minimum 20 mm).
Do not select eC registration compatible. Add your job to basket, and upload your data. If you supplied a paste layer with the PCB we will use that to make the stencil. Otherwise we will build a paste layer from the surface-mount pads.
