Moving water will disrupt the ultrasonic cavitation. If you need to move the water, do it when the u/s are off.

Rick, Ultrasonics is a mechanical scrubbing action (cavitation) similar to any other scrubbing action, if you scrub long enough, you stand the chance of wearing away some of the surface material (shiny coating of a solder joint). The shiny coat on a

Clark, The universal GDM should handle your application with ease. Although not as accurate as an archimedes screw, the positive displacement pump of your GDM will still be well within any tolerances if maintained and operated properly.. Not to me

There are two primary causes of epoxy adhesive bond failure, heat and over exposure to moisture. Ultrasonic cavitation is a only a mechanical "scrubbing" action on a microscopic level. However, if the adhesive bond is week or has small areas of det

Hannu, First and for all I have a problem with your question "tried and trusted" for the simple reason that you are going to change too lead-free. Ultrasonic soldering or welding is not new, as far as I know it is only used applying the ultrasonic

Hege, can you share more info on the formulation you ended up using for the micro dot dispensing? I'm trying to find the proper metal load and viscosity for the auger valve dispenser that we are developing and it looks like the regular low viscosity

The ultrasonic frequency used in today�s stencil cleaners is usually a 40 kHz �sweep� frequency (also used on semiconductors and other sensitive cleaning applications). This frequency is not low enough to cause stencil damage (the lower the frequen

Dear Larry, I developed the ultrasonic cleaning process for Smart Sonic. It has developed into the most widely used stencil and misprinted PCB cleaning process worldwide. With that in mind, I offer some words of caution. "IT'S NOT THE ULTRASONICS!

Hello Dave, I hope that electronic slap didn�t hurt too much. Robf, I am sorry that you did not agree with my initial response, but the answer is very detailed and most of the support material I have is only in paper format so I need to either snai

When cleaning water washable flux from PCBs using U/S, the final rinse can be with spray DI water for aesthetic purposes because the wash cycle is really just a long U/S rinse (no added chemistry). Fresh DI water should be continuously added to fresh
