Hybrid Drying Technology for In-line Aqueous Cleaning of Lead-Free Assemblies

The use of high velocity, heated air to remove residual water has become the predominant method for drying printed circuit boards in the in-line aqueous cleaning process. As lead-free circuit boards become more complex and component spacing decreases, the effectiveness of direct blow-off drying is greatly diminished. Adding blower power or slowing process speed will improve drying performance, but increase operating cost, and may decrease throughput.
