DEK Printer Magnetic PCB Support Tooling Pin with 81mm Height STD DIA Diameter for Stable PCB Positioning

DEK Printer 107785 112069 Magnetic PCB Support Tooling Pin 81mm STD DIA

DEK Printer 107785 112069 Magnetic PCB Support Tooling Pin 81mm STD DIA is a professional SMT printer tooling component designed for stable PCB support during solder paste printing. In SMT production, the printing process is the first and one of the most critical steps before component placement and reflow soldering. If the PCB is not held flat and stable during printing, even a small amount of board movement, bending, or vibration may cause uneven solder paste deposition, poor stencil contact, printing offset, bridging, insufficient solder paste, solder balls, or unstable reflow results. This magnetic PCB support pin is used to support the printed circuit board from the bottom side, helping the board remain level during the complete printing cycle.

This tooling pin is suitable for DEK printer maintenance, SMT production setup, PCB support adjustment, spare parts replacement, and production line inventory. With 81mm height and STD DIA specification, it is designed for applications requiring a correct standard support pin size for compatible DEK printer tooling systems. The magnetic design allows operators to place, move, and adjust the pin quickly on the printer support platform. This is very helpful for high-mix SMT production, where different PCB sizes, panel designs, board thicknesses, and bottom-side layouts require flexible support positions.

Cause

In SMT solder paste printing, many defects are first discovered during SPI inspection, AOI inspection, reflow inspection, or final quality checking. Common problems may include insufficient solder paste, excessive solder paste, offset paste deposits, poor paste release, bridging between fine-pitch pads, solder balls, tombstoning risk, open solder joints, or unstable printing repeatability. Operators may first check stencil cleaning, solder paste viscosity, squeegee pressure, printing speed, separation speed, stencil aperture design, or machine calibration. These are all important factors, but PCB support is also one of the key points that should not be ignored.

If the PCB is not supported correctly from underneath, the board can bend downward when the stencil and squeegee apply pressure. This is especially common for thin PCB boards, large-size panels, boards with cut-out areas, flexible boards, long strip boards, or boards with uneven copper distribution. Once the PCB surface is not level, the stencil cannot maintain even contact with all pad areas. Some areas may receive too much paste, while other areas may receive too little paste. This creates process instability and increases the risk of rework.

For fine-pitch components, BGA pads, QFN pads, connectors, small passive components, LED boards, communication boards, and automotive electronics, even minor printing variation can affect final product yield. A small support tooling part can therefore have a major influence on production stability. The DEK Printer 107785 112069 Magnetic PCB Support Tooling Pin 81mm STD DIA helps solve this problem by providing stable, flexible, and repeatable PCB underside support.

Solution

The DEK Printer 107785 112069 Magnetic PCB Support Tooling Pin 81mm STD DIA provides a practical solution for stable PCB support in SMT solder paste printing. The magnetic structure allows the support pin to be placed quickly on the DEK printer tooling platform. Operators can adjust the support position according to PCB size, panel layout, and bottom-side component clearance. Compared with fixed tooling systems, magnetic tooling pins are easier to reposition and more suitable for production lines that change products frequently.

When properly arranged, this support pin helps reduce PCB bending and keeps the board closer to the required printing plane. Stable support helps improve stencil contact consistency, solder paste transfer quality, and printing repeatability. It can also reduce unnecessary machine parameter adjustments caused by unstable board support. For maintenance teams, replacing worn or missing tooling pins with the correct part number is a simple and effective way to restore stable printer operation.

This product is suitable for SMT factories, EMS manufacturers, OEM production lines, printer maintenance departments, and SMT spare parts distributors. It is a small but important tooling component for customers who want to improve printing stability, reduce downtime, and keep reliable spare parts available for daily production.

Specifications

Application

This magnetic PCB support tooling pin is mainly used in DEK solder paste printers. Its main purpose is to support printed circuit boards during solder paste printing and help the PCB remain stable while the stencil and squeegee complete the printing process. It is suitable for electronics manufacturing plants producing communication equipment, automotive electronics, industrial control boards, LED modules, power supply boards, consumer electronics, medical electronics, smart devices, computer peripheral boards, and other PCB assemblies.

For high-density PCB assemblies, stable support is very important. Boards with fine-pitch pads require accurate solder paste volume and clean printing edges. If the PCB moves or bends during printing, paste may not release correctly from stencil apertures. For larger panels, the center of the PCB may sag if there are not enough support points. For boards with bottom-side components, operators need to place tooling pins carefully to avoid touching components, solder joints, test points, or other sensitive areas. The magnetic design makes this process faster and easier.

This tooling pin can also be used as part of a process improvement plan. If a factory has repeated solder paste variation on certain PCB models, engineers can review the support layout and add or adjust magnetic support pins. A better support layout may reduce printing defects without changing stencil design or printer parameters.

How It Works

Before production, the operator checks the PCB size, thickness, bottom-side layout, component position, and required support areas. The magnetic PCB support tooling pins are placed on the DEK printer tooling platform according to the board support plan. Because the base is magnetic, the pin can stay in position during setup and can also be moved when adjustment is needed.

When the PCB enters the printing area, the support pin contacts the underside of the PCB at a safe support point. During printing, the stencil contacts the PCB surface and the squeegee moves across the stencil apertures. This creates downward pressure. If the PCB is unsupported, it may flex downward, especially in the center area. The tooling pin helps resist this movement and keeps the board more stable.

A correct support setup should provide enough stability without damaging the board. Operators should avoid placing support pins under bottom-side components, solder joints, connectors, or fragile areas. For repeat production, it is useful to record the tooling pin positions after a successful setup. This helps reduce setup time and improves repeatability between operators and production shifts.

How To Choose

When choosing a magnetic PCB support tooling pin for DEK printer, buyers should confirm the part number, height, diameter standard, printer model, and application requirement. For this product, the key part numbers are 107785 and 112069. The height is 81mm and the diameter type is STD DIA. These specifications should match the customer’s original tooling pin or DEK printer support requirement.

Height is one of the most important selection points. If the support pin is too high, it may lift the PCB and affect stencil contact. If the support pin is too low, it may not provide enough support, and the board may still bend during printing. The diameter standard should also match the tooling requirement. Customers should check old parts, machine documentation, or production setup records before ordering.

If the customer is not sure whether this part is correct, it is recommended to provide a photo of the existing support pin, the DEK printer model, old part number, required quantity, and destination country. This helps confirm compatibility and avoid wrong purchasing.
