Screen Print Accessories Over the years, AMI has developed many items to make your job easier and more productive, among them: Adjustable Tool Plates These accommodate most commercial substrate sizes from 0.375" x 0.500" through 21" x 21".  Reconfiguring tool plates to handle different sizes is simple and straightforward.  Tool plates provide vacuum holddown holes for holding substrates securely. Tell us about your application. Custom Tool Plates We build and ship a variety of tool plates for specific purposes; over the past 45 years, we've seen nearly everything! Tool plates for thick-film/hybrid microelectronic circuits are available with mechanical or manual snuggers, and with 3-pin (tungsten carbide) fixed or adjustable edge references. For flex circuits and LTCC, we offer both porous stone inserts and simulated stone with an array of .020" vacuum hole perforations on 0.25" centers.  For PCB's, we can accommodate either single-sided or double-sided boards with 2-pin (tungsten carbide) tooling hole references. Vacuum pull-through of material for via fill is also available.  A second vacuum source is typically required for this pull-through. All our tool plates are hard coat anodized and may also be Teflon impregnated to minimize friction and extend useful life. Tell us about your application. Vacuum Sources AMI printers with vacuum-lock stages and vacuum holddown tool plates are provided with vacuum plumbing and connections for customer-supplied (house) vacuum as standard equipment.  If no house vacuum is available, AMI offers as optional equipment: A venturi effect vacuum generator powered by the house pressurized air supply, or An appropriately sized electric pump driven vacuum generator Screen Leveling Jigs For quick and accurate leveling of screen frame mounting plates with the substrate workholder surface, AMI screen leveling jigs save time, add convenience, and help get everything parallel.  The jigs accommodate a wide variety of frame sizes.
