Using Ultrasonic Cleaning Systems to Safely and Effectively Clean Circuit Boards

Ultrasonic cleaning systems work by using a transducer plate in contact with water or a mild cleaning solution to produce cavitation bubbles that scrub the items to be cleaned.

Such systems remove impurities more effectively, thoroughly, and safely than conventional cleaning methods. They don't use traditional scrubbing or harsh cleaning chemicals. These attributes make ultrasonic cleaning systems especially ideal for cleaning circuit boards.

Kajio offers a wide range of ultrasonic cleaning system equipment. Apart from offering standard equipment, Kajio can also help customers select the system that best matches specific circuit board cleaning specifications and requirements.

Among the advantages of using ultrasonic cleaning systems are:

·         Rapid and thorough cleaning of all surfaces

·         Cavitation bubbles can clean and scrub complex geometries, through holes and into crevices

·         The frequency can also be adjusted to meet specific cleaning intensity

·         Water-based cleaning solutions which don’t require the use of harsh chemicals

The benefits of using ultrasonic cleaning systems include:

·         It is cost-effective

·         It eliminates the need to purchase, store and use harsh cleaning chemicals

·         It helps increase productivity and improve output quality

·         It can be used both for gentle cleaning of delicate parts and robust cleaning to remove heavier impurities

·         Its complete cleaning action can remarkably reduce failure rates

·         It is environment-friendly

When purchasing an ultrasonic cleaning system, consideration of the operating frequencies and the system's physical configuration are critical for obtaining the best cleaning performance possible. In addition to selecting the appropriate frequencies, adequate system power is important for industrial cleaning applications. Kaijo can evaluate a circuit board cleaning process and can recommend the appropriate ultrasonic cleaning system configuration.
