Look at the Accel cleaning system. It spins the parts and pushes/pulls the crud from the tight spots. I believe they are in Plano (Dallas) Texas. ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: SMT Cleaning Author: [log in to unmask] at Internet Date: 12/19/96 10:00 AM I'm working on developing a cleaning process for SMT. One of the challenges on the product is very low part clearances. In many cases, the devices are mounted only 1 to 3 mils from the board. Some devices also have their bodies soldered to the substrate to provide an RF ground. The substrates are ceramic, and the soldering process is IR reflow. Right now we are cleaning by hand in Axarel 2200. This is time consuming and marginally effective. I'm looking for a faster, more effective process. Any suggestions?
