CM Qualifies Cleaner for High Mix
August 16, 2007 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
MANASSAS, Va. ZESTRON qualified its VIGON SC 202 cleaning chemistry for a global high-mix/low-volume contract manufacturer (CM), under tests for leaded and lead-free solder removal, and other parameters. The manufacturer, in the top 10 EMS providers, according to Zestron, produces assemblies in a broad range of end markets.
The customer tested VIGON with various leaded and lead-free solder paste and SMT adhesives on stencils and double-sided misprinted boards. Reportedly, the process removed residues left after four hours of printing. It passed SIR, copper mirror, halide (ZESTRON), and IC tests, with a room-temperature process and residue-free drying. The CM will implement VIGON SC 202 at all its global locations, ZESTRON reports.
