Sounds like a epididymis! It depends on your paste chemistry. You can't just slap any old saponifier in there. Most water based cleaners evaporate the water and you have to remove the dried paste. It's a bit messy, maybe that's why your's is over

Hi Bruno, I am an equipment reseller in business since 1994. I have a Smart Sonic MG3000 ultra sonic stencil cleaner in inventory. It is a stainless steel model with Delta Sonics brand ultra sonic generator. It is the guillotine type that raises a

Hello Mark, I wish it were that simple so I could direct you to a particular manufacturer and stencil cleaner model. Unfortunately, there are several issues complicating the process of cleaning all these applications in one machine. First and fore

Soon we will be manufacturing board assemblies on our SMT lines that will utilize both lead and lead free water soluable solder pastes. I have read some discussion about change-over from lead to lead-free jobs related to machine cleanliness, etc. H

Kerryn, It's the first time I hear someone who needs an automated inspection machine to check the cleanliness of stencils. Why not improve on the cleaning method itself. I use ultrasonic batch cleaner. It takes 3 minutes to clean a stencil, 2 minutes

We have a customer that is transitioning to RoHS compliant assemblies. Their layouts are not changing from the old boards to the compliant ones so the stencils will remain unchanged. They are going through a transition phase where both will be buil

It happens on the middle of the stecil cleaning. The camera and the cleaner will stay under stencil in half way back. Then machine asking the initate the motors. If to press initate then the pcb stopper will hit the rails. Usually we move camera and

Dear Ing, Have you analyzed why some RF device aren't operational after washing? An assumption is that failures are related to the ultrasonic energy applied. Other possibilities are for poor rinsing, poor drying, inadequate washing on those failed

First, we agree with Loco that your QFP is nonwetting, rather than dewetting. Your sceen-shots look like ol' timey SnPb paste recipes. Turn-up the heaterometer dial. Second, on nitrogen: * We kinda think your O2 needs to be around 100ppm with 99.99%

Hi there Gary, Your solder ball problem is very similar the problem I experienced, but I was using a water soluble paste at the time. It started by inspectors telling me that they were seeing cold solder on some SIMM's that we had built regularly. W
