Abstract
A clamping assembly for a squeegee blade used in solder paste application. The assembly comprises a holder having referencing pins to position the blade. A clamping bar secures the blade to the holder. A recess is formed between the holder and the clamping bar. When a new blade is inserted, any paste contaminating the assembly is pushed into the recess ensuring both accurate blade positioning and clamping force.
