Universal: The
ALPHA TETRA system is designed for use on most
popular printers in use today. ALPHA TETRA™ foils
can be used with all kinds of squeegee blades and
paste application systems.
Quick: The stencil foils can be changed
in less than one minute - many times faster than most other
universal framing systems. Accurate foil location is predetermined
by locator pins.
Accurate: Achieving
stencil stability, print accuracy
and sharp registration is never a
problem with the ALPHA TETRA™ system.
The stencil foils are secured directly
to the frame which applies mechanical
4-way multi-point uniform tensioning
with no foil distortion, which is
nearly 40% stronger than mesh mounted
stencils. These connections and tensioning
features provide significant performance
advantages:
• Five times less deflection (Image Float)
during printing.
• Over 2 times greater positional accuracy.
• No mesh stretch effects even after tens
of thousands
of print cycles.
• No adverse effects from cleaning solvents.
Space Saving: The ALPHA TETRA™ work station can save
up to 70% in valuable floor space by providing a convenient, mobile stencil
foil storage unit, that takes over 150 stencils in individual cardboard storage
wallets. The mobile work station can be positioned close to the printer to
save precious stencil retrieval time.
Cost Saving: Lower costs through improved yields, reduced
storage, reduced downtime, no return or recycling of used frames.
