MicroCel Centrifugal Cleaner

The first technology to use centrifugal energy to clean electronic circuit assemblies, precision parts, and semiconductor pacakges.  The system offers unparalleled penetration, solubilization, and contaminant removal. 

The centrifugal energy, generated when parts are rotated in a sealed process chamber, produces results unattainable through any other available technology.

Products cleaned in the MicroCel system are held in place and secured to the head using either universal adjustable fixtures, standard fixtures, or customer fixtures to your product type.

Overview

The MicroCel Centrifugal cleaning system provides high-performance, complete cleaning of electronic circuit assemblies, precision parts, medical devices, wafers, and advanced packages including flip chips, MCMs, SIPs, BGAs, CSPs, and hybrid electronics.

Centrifugal energy, produced when parts are rotated inside a sealed process chamber, provides thorough penetration, solubilization, and contaminant removal when couple with appropriate cleaning chemistries.

Fixturing:

Products cleaned in the MicroCel are held in place and secured to the robot head using either universal adjustable fixtures, standard magazines/carriers, or custom fixtures specific to the product type.

Featured Technology and Benefits

Solvent Versatility

With today’s uncertainty about tomorrow’s solvents, the risk in buying a cleaning system is substantial.  Expensive new equipment may quickly become obsolete when a change is made in the choice of cleaning solutions.  The MicroCel is the only system currently available that can handle most cleaning solutions, including DI water, saponified solutions, semi-aqueous solutions, detergents, alcohol-based solvents, and terpenes.

Superior Cleaning

By any measure, e.g., ionic, SIR, or visual, cleaning results produced by MicroCel technology exceed all others. Ionic contamination of 0.00 micrograms/inch2, surface insulation resistance greater than 1014 ohms/ince2and with no visible residue at 45X magnification upon component removal are typical cleaning results.

Zero-Discharge

The MicroCel zero-discharge system is an automatic, on-board, closed-loop, fully integrated waste water treatment system.  When using solvents that separate from water, the zero-discharge system automatically removes from the used rinse water and returns the wash solvent to the wash reservoir for reuse.  The used rinse water is then processed through the four-stage purification process, including microbial control, 5-micron filtration, carbon adsorption, and mixed bed deionizing resin to restore the rinse water to is original purity level.

Complete Drying

The MicroCel system uses centrifugal energy and heated flowing air to completely dry complex products in seconds.

Clean Room Compatible

The MicroCel is commonly installed in clean room environments that are common for medical and semi-conductor manufacturing environments.
