BEFORE CLEANING AFTER CLEANING

Major EMS factories are beginning to understand that their SMT Assembly is not complete without a Pneumatic Stencil Cleaner. Certain stencil cleaners can help cut down overall costs like labor costs, printing errors, and factory and environmental hazards. We have found that often times SMT Factory Owners and CEOs tend to overlook the costs within the stencil cleaning process that affect many factors down the operation line. It is not just the cost of the machine being purchased, it is the overall cleaning system that you are investing in which has an effect on many different areas and should be addressed when considering your best stencil cleaning method.

The Pneumatic Stencil Cleaner can be used for various stencils and misprinted PCBs, the combination of features offered by our S-1688 make it a unique and truly automatic stencil cleaner, allowing the operator to walk away from the process without worry. Normally, stencil cleaners require manual positioning and movement from experienced operators to ensure consistent cleaning. The S-1688, from start to finish, is a closed cleaning system that does not require experienced operators or any repositioning. It is the easiest solution for ease of operation, fire safety, chemical safety, and the environment.

The S-1688 frees operators by performing the following operations automatically: combining a specifically shaped ultrasonic cleaning chamber, continuously filtering the cleaning bath, automatic indication of the liquid level and filter status, and automatic loading/unloading of the stencil. Its integrated loading arm ensures that every stencil is positioned precisely the same way inside the cleaning tank and that it is withdrawn from the cleaning chemicals as soon as the cycle is finished. Its filtration system continuously removes solids from the cleaning liquid, often maintaining the cleaning effectiveness of the medium for up to a year or longer (depending on usage, of course).

There are three main pollution sources to consider when dealing with Stencil Cleaning Equipment for your PCBA. They include gaseous emissions, wastewater, and solid emissions. Depending on the regulations of the location you conduct manufacturing, the quantity of the emissions, and any fines or penalties associated with these emissions, we recommend learning about environmental pitfalls and avoiding them altogether.

The environmental pitfalls you can avoid by choosing the S-1688 Pneumatic Stencil Cleaner:

Air Pollution: Ozone Depleting Substances Climate Change Contributing Substances Odors

Solid Waste: Heavy metal cations (notably lead, tin and copper) All leachable toxic materials up to 100 years in authorized discharge conditions Used solvent

Waste Water Pollution: Heavy metal cations (notably lead, tin and copper) Anions (notably phosphates, nitrites and sulfates) Complexing/chelating agents (notably EDTA salts and ammonium/amine compounds PH (acid or base condition) COD/BOD Other (temperature, solid matter, suspended matter, Toxicity to aqueous life before and after biodegradation surface tension modifiers, etc.)

Stencil Cleaning Safety

S O U T H E R N M A C H I N E R Y • S M T H E L P . C O M | 3

Manual Stencil Cleaning poses many safety hazards to people, property, and productivity. The

highly flammable, and extremely concentrated solutions that are typical of stencil cleaning

solutions pose a risk to operators assigned to this laborious task. In addition, machines that plug

into the electrical outlet pose a fire and detonation risk.

The Pneumatic Stencil Cleaner S-1688 offers a no-rinse, aqueous cleaning agents for 100% closed

loop process, for conformity to present and future economic and environmental operating

requirements.The operator can start the cycle and walk away from the cleaning operation. Also, its

compact footprint, integrated castors, and trivial connection requirements-its only connection is to

a 240-volt outlet, with no water or drainage requirements make it very flexible.

The pneumatic design of the S-1688 machine adopts a fully pneumatic control wash, to clean the

stencil type circuit board and can effectively remove the solder paste and flux residue. It is driven

by the pneumatic logic control and efficient, fast, safe is cleaning the stencil current and

recommended method, using rotating efficient atomization spray arms, four heavy solution filtration

cycle use, simple maintenance, all in a stainless steel body that guarantees the life span.

The Secret Ingredient to Top Quality Stencil Cleaning

S O U T H E R N M A C H I N E R Y • S M T H E L P . C O M | 5

B Y   S M T H E L P . C O M

We hold ourselves and our machinery to a higher

standard. Emerging green technologies (EGTs)

create changes with product design and

automation which increase efficiencies for many

categories including costs, materials, time, and the

environment. Current technologies have updated to

recycle and reclaim methods that used to simply be

considered waste water. This is no longer the only

option, nor the best option.

In every capacity, your factory should aim at

moving toward green practices that return on your

investment for the long-term. When resources are

limited, growth is limited; think about the future of

your business when considering how you can

implement best practices and technologies for your

factory's future.

There are a number of different stencil cleaning

systems, but choosing the best solution for your

assembly will greatly affect your factory's overall

productivity.
