Learn How to Achieve Maximum Cleaning Performance during Kyzen’s Presentation at the 2010 IPC Conference in Budapest

NASHVILLE, TN - Kyzen, a world leading provider of environmentally responsible precision cleaning products for electronics and high-technology manufacturing operations, announces that Serge Tuerlings will present a paper titled “Integrating Cleaning Equipment and Cleaning Agents for Maximum Performance” at the IPC Electronics Assembly Quality & Reliability Conference, scheduled to take place October 6-7, 2010 in Budapest, Hungary.

The growing complexity of electronic assemblies increases the cleaning challenge due to miniaturization, lower component gaps and improved flux designs. The need to remove ionizable contaminants is critical to production yields and reliability. As users source cleaning equipment and cleaning agents to meet these increased cleaning demands, a number of options must be considered such as batch versus inline, cleaning agent designs, impingement options, controlling the cleaning agent, rinsing, drying and waste management.

The purpose of the research paper is to provide operational data for integrating aqueous cleaning equipment and cleaning agents for maximum performance. The conference participants will gain knowledge of batch and inline aqueous cleaning equipment designs, cleaning agents, energy sources for penetrating low residue gaps, air management, controlling the cleaning agent, managing rinse water and waste management.

Serge Tuerlings has a degree in Petro Chemistry. He started his career in the electronics industry nearly 20 years ago, working in Printed Wire Board manufacturing and supplying surface treatment solutions to the European market. After five years, Serge moved on to work in the soldering industry by joining one of the leading suppliers of soldering materials.

Tuerlings quickly became an expert in soldering matters and has presented several papers during various events. He joined Kyzen two years ago and started the company’s European support and logistics facility. Serge’s analytical mind and vast experience in the electronics assembly industry has helped Kyzen to expand its European operations.
