A universal support frame that holds a printed (PCB) so that both sides are accessible for processing and testing, and which provides an attachment mechanism for holding a mechanism to cool the PCB as it is being processed or tested. The universal support frame includes a base, and a first board support pivotally connected to the base. A pair of support angles are connected at their first ends to the first board support, and are connected at their second ends to a second board support. A variety of PCBs are capable of being held between the first and second board supports since the second board support is adjustable. Furthermore, both sides of a PCB may be accessed since the first board support may be rotated relative to the base. The second board support connects to a bracket for holding a cooling mechanism, such as a fan, that cools the PCB and prevents it from overheating. The fan speed maybe controlled to match the thermal profile of the PCB being tested, and prevent undercooling and overcooling of the PCB.
