Rollers & Adhesive

The PCBA as standard is supplied with Nanocleen™ 20.20 cleaning rollers and Low static adhesive. This combination offers world class cleaning in a static controlled environment.

All rollers are manufactured to ISO6123 Class A and the adhesive to FINAT standards.

Static Management

The SMT industry demands minimal levels of static charge within the Surface mount process. To meet this the PCBA is fitted as standard with a AREO Bar from Simco.  A combination of Nanocleen™20.20, Low static

Adhesive and the AREO bar ensures the board exiting the machine is ~ 35v.

Tablet operator interface

This easy to use, icon driven touch screen Tablet is the interface between the operator and machine. Status condition of the PCBA are clearly shown on the tablet at all times. The ability to save specific board parameters allows programmes to be created for each board. This feature speeds up the changeover period and reducing down time.

Board Support System

This fully adjustable anti-static brush system, ensures the board remains in contact with the Nanocleen™ rollers during the cleaning process. This automatic support is software drive and positioned in relation to the board width.

Static Monitoring

This optional feature is positioned after the PCBA machine. Its purpose is to monitor the level of static charge on the surface of each board before entering the solder paste process. Static limits set by the customer ensure boards processed meet requirement. Outputs from the system can be used to set off alarms or if required stop the line.

Alarm Beacon

This industry standard staged Alarm Beacon ensures at all times that the operator is aware of the running condition of the machine. As with all machines within the SMT process this simple visual and audible feature ensures up to date status of the machine.

Before Solder Paste print

“How clean are your Boards?”

Approximately 70% of defects in the SMT process are related to Solder Paste Print.

Quality of the solder paste print is directly related to the level of contamination on the board as it enters printing. The PCBA removes this variable from the process by cleaning the surface of the pads just before application of solder paste.

After Laser Marking

“How clean are your Boards?"

Laser Marking in-line and off-line creates contamination on the surface of the board. This fine dust cannot be completely removed using brush and vacuum systems. The PCBA was specifically designed to remove loose particles of all sizes from the surface of the board presenting a clean PCB board to the process.
