Process Issues
Vacuum Issues
Have you:
- Confirmed your chuck size is correct for your substrate?
- Checked the chuck base is properly screwed on, if the base is needed?
- Checked that all o-rings are installed, if needed?
- Checked the chuck for residue?
- Checked that the chuck was installed on the spindle correctly?
Vacuum should be met when the correct chuck size is chosen and chuck/base seal correctly. See above resources for more info. For piece parts, carefully screw on the base, don't cross the threads! Also make sure to screw as tightly as the chuck allows, but not further. These parts are plastic and can easily deteriorate if abused.
