Hey, What implications are there when cleaning a stencil of conductive adhesives rather than solder paste? I'm looking to change over to this medium but i'm stuggling to find any journals or data based around the implications of this transision, Ch

I am considering using a vapor degreaser to clean PCB's after they emerge from our wave. Does anyone have experince with this process that they would be willing to share?

arent there environmentally friendly solvents (i have seen some from 3M) that can be used in a vapor degreaser. i was also planning to use the vapor degreaser to clean boards prior to conformal coating

Thanks to all for clarification - I now appreciate the different methodology between "in-line" & "end of run" but am still unclear as to advantages / disadvantages of paper versus non-woven material ie stencil rolls for in-line cleaning. Any info wo

Ahne [?] You say, "There are almost as many ways to be successful with this as there are ways to do it wrong." What do you believe are the successful and wrong was to go about cleaning stencils after the run is finished (or temporarily interrupted)

Does anyone have an equipment recommendation for stencil cleaner brand/type that they would recommend for no-clean pastes? I have used ultrasonic cleaners in the past with aqueous pastes, but I don't want to buy something that really won't work for u

I wonder if I can convince corporate that we require 55 gallon drums of Vodka to clean circuit boards based on this post.

Glue has different mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties than solder. That's why all these very nice no-lead people are furiously trying to gin-up some wacky solder alloy, rather than using glue. Among the papers in the SMTA Knowledge base

I am a lay person researching the application of non-woven material in stencil rolls either using branded material or non-branded alternatives for DEK, MPM Panasonic machines in SMT environments. I have read a number of articles referring to aqueous
