摘要:
A method for producing printing stencils, especially for screen printing methods, and particularly those for use in filling at least one contact hole formed in a printed-circuit board, a pattern artwork being reproduced on the stencil, which corresponds to an arrangement of contact holes on the printed-circuit board. It is provided that the pattern artwork reproduced on the stencil be produced in the same working process, especially a punching process, using a cluster punching tool, as the at least one contact hole on the printed-circuit board. Also, a stencil device is provided.
