Options to Tackle Electronics Assembly Cleaning–Short Course at APEX

This course addresses specific cleaning problems facing designers and assemblers of high value electronic assemblies. Attendees will gain the skills to provide cost-effective, reliable assemblies that meet customer requirements. Challenges include assemblies with small, tightly packed components, long required product lifetimes, zero-fail criteria, as well as technical and regulatory restrictions on available cleaning chemistries and methods. Attendees will also develop skills to address requirements in emerging technologies such as additive manufacturing and driver assisted vehicles. They will learn when, what, how and how much to clean. The course will include case studies using aqueous, solvent and “non-chemical” processes.
