May 8, 2018 | ZESTRONEstimated reading time: 1 minute
ZESTRON will host the Surface Cleanliness Assessment webinar on Thursday, May 24, from 1:30 PM to 2:30 PM EDT. This is the third installment of the ZESTRON Academy 2018 Cleaning Webinar Series, and will be presented by our industry expert, Umut Tosun, M.S.Ch.E, Application Technology Manager.
How clean is clean? When manufacturing electronic assemblies, impurities left on the board’s surface or underneath the components may lead to field failures. This webinar provides an overview of the methodologies available to properly assess the cleanliness of post-clean assemblies.
Applying the appropriate cleanliness assessment technique is critical to maintaining an in-spec cleaning process. “We invite both new and experienced industry members to attend this free session as we’ll review both direct/indirect measurement methods such as visual inspection, ion chromatography, flux and resin tests,” said Sal Sparacino, Sales and Marketing Manager, ZESTRON Americas.
