Kyzen's A4241 chemistry is a versatile aqueous chemistry that is capable of both PCB defluxing and stencil cleaning. The Kyzen A4241 provides superb cleaning abilities and bright, shiny solder joints on your PCBs.
Booster20 is an inhibitor used in combination with the Kyzen A4625B
cleaning chemistry. Booster20 is added sump side (meaning when the chemistry is
poured into the cleaning system, as compared to being packaged in the chemistry
itself prior to addition) to the wash solution. Unfortunately, due to the
separating characteristic of the Booster20, it cannot be packaged into the
chemistry,
This additive is required when cleaning Leaded (Pb) alloys, if
unused, you will observe darkened solder joints.

Aqueous Technologies - Trident Defluxing System
A
batch defluxing process is much more efficient than running an inline defluxing
process, especially in an Aqueous Technologies Trident Defluxing System.
First, a batch defluxer is heating up a much smaller quantity of wash
solution (approx. 3.5 gallons) for use in the wash process; whereas, in an
inline cleaning system you are trying to heat 60 gallons of wash solution.
The difference in energy usage is quite significant in comparison.
Secondly, the separation of wash process to rinse process is
a difficult task. The only effective methods are to increase the footprint
of the machine by elongating the line and creation of an chemical isolation zone
or to accurately place and tune your spray jets to ensure less carry over from
one zone to the other.
The problem is if rinse water makes it into
your wash solution tank, your wash solution concentration will decrease and
cleanliness issues could arise. On the opposite, if too much wash solution
chemistry is making it to the rinse zone, you are washing valuable chemistry
down the drain.
A batch defluxing system, like the Trident, completely
separates the wash process from the rinse process by using separate plumbing for
both process. When the wash process is complete, the Trident returns the
wash solution to a holding tank and actuates a series of solenoids to activate
the rinse process, at which time it brings in fresh DI water to rinse the
PCBs/PCAs. Very minimal amounts of chemistry are wasted, usually the form
of suds on the chambers or PCBs that doesn't return to the wash solution tank,
this is considered your dragout.
We have compiled some data that helps
you to assess what the cost of a cleaning process, you can view this information
by clicking on the HTML icon below. This is an estimated cost per batch,
so remember the more PCBs that can be loaded, means a more efficient process.
Aqueous Technologies - Zero-Ion Cleanliness Tester
Once you have cleaned your PCBs of any soils, fluxes, residues, or residual
cleaning chemistries, it is important to determine the cleanliness of your PCBs.
This allows you to benchmark your cleaning process and observe any changes in
your processes (cleaning, assembly, wave or reflow) by auditing your production
units and observing any change in cleanliness.
The Zero-Ion system is a
R.O.S.E (Resistivity Of Solvent Extract) tester that uses an IPA (Isopropyl
Alcohol)/DI Water solution to extract any soils or contaminents that may remain
on the PCB after the cleaning process. The system then calculates based
upon your PCB size and gives you PASS/FAIL results with data based on inudstry
standards for PCB cleanliness.
The Zero-Ion is very effective at sensing
contaminations on the PCBs which leads to a very high level of accuracy in
assuring that your PCB defluxing process is performing to the levels that want
to achieve.
Aqueous Technologies - Rinse Water Recycler
Making
your process "Green" will incur an added cost, when comparing to going
straight to drain. Assessing what those costs will be is key in your
decision of Rinse Water Recycling vs Evaporation. Also, please consider
that evaporation is still exhausting into your environment, but through a vent
stack as compared to a drain. This is a key point in regards to the impact
on your environment, plus it is something that can surely be regulated in the
future, which will cause you to reassess your process again. In fact,
Aqueous Technologies has discontinued the E101 evaporator as the industry moves
definitively in favor of the Rinse Water Recycler.
In our
experience, Rinse Water Recycling is the best solution. As you will find
the operational costs (media tank exchange) are actually minimal, when you
compare to the operational costs (electricity) involved with the evaporation
process. Not to mention an evaporation process isn't truly green
considering it is still exhausting to the vent and it is using large amounts of
energy to evaporate the drain water.

Ersa i-Con Hand Soldering Station
The
Ersa i-Con 1 Hand Soldering system is a state of the art soldering iron system
that gives you the ultimate controls of your hand soldering process. The
engineering of the system takes several factors in account, including:
conveniencem, quality and efficiency.
The i-Con 1 uses accuracte
thermocouple placement and 150w heating element to provide you with an accurate
hand soldering tool that has sufficient power to quickly recover andythermal
energy that is transferred to the solder joint in the hand soldering process.
This allows you to solder at lower temperatures, rather than compensating
with increased temperatures. This is safer for both your tips and your
components. Lower temperatures can greatly prolong your tip life, which
can save you significant amounts over the life of the soldering stations.
Furthermore, the Ersa i-Con 1 uses i-Tips which have about 2-3 times the
plating of most of our competition. The Ersa i-Tips use approximately
300-600µ of Iron (Fe) plating, in comparison to approximately 100-200µ
of Iron (Fe) plating in our competitors'. This simply means that our tips
will last approximately 2-3 times as long, under the same conditions (time,
temp, etc.); which with the added efficiency of the Ersa i-Con 1 only works
further in Ersa's favor.
Often, the operational costs of a soldering
station are overlooked because a company is already invested in a station.
But we ask you to take a look at the actual costs of your current soldering iron
stations, not what they originally cost you, but what are they costing you now
to keep them in operation?
By clicking on the HTML link you will get a
representation on the potential savings based upon 15 stations.
By
clicking on the EXCEL link you will be able to save and manipulate the data to

Samsung offers more
than just high speed solutions, they also offer systems that allow for more
flexibility, combinations of speed and flexibility and also systems configured
for limted budget applications.
The SM Series of placement equipment
offers 3 main configurations of systems allowing placement speeds ranging from
28,000-75,000 CPH (optimum). The 3 main systems are:
-
SM471 (Higher Speed)
- SM481 (Balance of Speed vs
Cost)
-
SM482 (Budget Conscious)
We invite you to
consider the Samsung SMT placement equipment for your placement requirements.
We are confident that you will find the equipment to be well designed, robust
and very intuitive and efficient, thus allowing you to be more efficient with
your process and to keep up with the demands of your process.
Samsung also offers a
variety of feeder solutions, including their Auto-Loading, Auto-Splicing and
Auto-Stripping SMART Feeders.
Managing your feeders can often be a
dedicated task requiring the continuous commitment of personnel to ensure that
the reels never run out of components. With Samsung's SMART Feeders you
can attach a 2nd reel to a feeder and when the 1st reel is exhausted the feeder
will automatically load, splice and transfer to the 2nd reel, thus allowing you
more time to focus on other tasks.
We encourage you to talk with us about
the wide variety of feeder options available for the Samsung SMT Placement
Equipment.
