Rick, Ultrasonics can damage some components that react to the mechanical action of the ultrasonics inside the device. Some component mfr data sheets will comment on ultrasonics. Better safe than sorry. Dean makes a good point if you can change so

The issue of using ultrasonic technology for post reflow de-fluxing presents challenges in two categories: Controversial: Although there are recent studies that indicate acceptance with ultrasonic technology on populated assemblies, there remains si

Hello Does somebody of you have some experiences with ultrasonic detectors in SMT-Production? Is it possible to test quality of solder joints by using a ultrasonic detector similar to non destrucitve crack inspection tests? Is there a manufacturer fo

have you tried using an ultrasonic cleaner? i heard this from a friend and told me about this option. although, you may have to use a solution with the machine. here's a link i saw before while researching on using ultrasonic cleaner for pcb: http:

Have you tried an ultrasonic water cleaning process? We use an ultrasonic cleaner with tap water and Omega Aqua Clean LPH cleaner (omegasonics.com) then rinse with DI water. However, our cleaning requirements are not as strict as yours are from the

Guo: You want to know: 1 Can I use water as the solvent in an ultrasonic machine to remove solder paste from PCB? Continuing from Jason�s comments: Sure you can use water as the solvent to remove solder paste from PCB, but recognize that some flu

Mike Conrad's "matter of full disclosure" is not quite complete. He fails to mention that he only makes spray-in-air board cleaners and only ultrasonic stencil cleaners. He does not make ultrasonic board cleaners. So, he apparently he is "grinding

Hello Frank, Just a quick note regarding the use of your Smart Sonic Stencil Cleaning process for cleaning PCBs; if the boards are populated, some components my require an ultrasonic rinse with DI water as ultrasonics will deliver the wash solution

In the late 80s or early 90s, National Physical Laboratory (NPL) in the UK researched the frequencies and power levels that could be used for ultrasonic cleaning of electronic boards. The resulting reports by Dr. Colin Lea or maybe Peter Foote were a
