Equipment Specifications
Cleaning & Safety Features
A complete cleaning solution engineered for safety, consistency, and operational efficiency.
Multi-Stage Ultrasonic Cleaning
Three-stage immersion cleaning with ultrasonic agitation removes solder paste residue, flux, and particulates from stencil apertures and surfaces with precision that manual cleaning cannot achieve.
- 50kHz–132kHz frequency sweep
- Controlled temperature management
- Optimized dwell times per stage
- Residue-free results
Integrated Fume Extraction
Built-in ventilation system with flexible ductwork captures volatile organic compounds and airborne particulates, maintaining a safe work environment and meeting workshop air-quality standards.
- Spiral flex hose configuration
- Dust separation & filtration
- Adjustable extraction velocity
- Quiet operation
Operator Safety & Ergonomics
Integrated safety signage, ergonomic work height, PPE reminders, and eye protection ensure operator safety during cleaning cycles. Emergency stop and cycle controls for complete operational control.
- ANSI-compliant safety icons
- LED work surface lighting
- Adjustable shelf height
- Simple single-button control
Easy Maintenance & Storage
Modular tank cabinet design with quick-access doors simplifies chemical changes, waste disposal, and routine maintenance. Drain valve and collection tray enable safe fluid handling without spillage.
- Tool-free door latches
- Drip pan integral design
- Chemical disposal valve
- Component access door
3-Stage Ultrasonic Cleaning Cycle
Immersion & Agitation
Stencil placed in ultrasonic bath with aqueous cleaning solution. Multi-frequency ultrasonic waves (50–132 kHz sweep) create microscopic cavitation bubbles that penetrate apertures and dislodge solder paste residue and particulates.
Rinse & Neutralization
Automatic transfer to second tank for deionized water rinse cycle. Removes residual cleaning solution and neutralizes flux residue. Temperature-controlled rinse ensures no thermal shock to stencil.
Drying & Inspection
Final immersion in isopropanol removes water traces. Heated drying cycle evaporates remaining moisture. Optional visual inspection under integrated LED lighting confirms residue-free apertures before stencil return to production.
Measurable Results
Automated cleaning minimises stencil damage, reduces production downtime, and delivers consistent print quality across every run.
