Are your PCB’s clean, when entering the SMT line?

Are your PCB’s clean, when entering the SMT line?

Contaminating particles on Printed Circuit Boards can have dramatic impact. Such Foreign Object Debris (FOD) can cause shorts, weak solder joints, and voiding.

Fibers and other unwanted particles from bare board manufacturing and dust from transport packaging are frequently found on PCBs.

Laser marking is another source of contamination. In-built vacuum or brush cleaning features often prove to be ineffective.

Many customers are unaware of how dirty boards arrive at the SMT line and are unaware of the associated risks

From experience we know that any PCB arriving from any supplier will contain unwanted debris, many particles even visible to the naked eye. Imagine the potential impact on your assembly!

We can now present the evidence of such contamination, scientifically during an experiment, on site at your facility, on your PCBs.

Partnertec now offers this ‘Board Pack Test’  free of charge to customers in the Benelux, because we believe this is the way to proof that you might need a solution for a problem that you are not aware of yet.
