- XD-8GS series dry ice cleaning machine; It is an online, selective, fully automatic dedicated cleaning machine that does not produce harmful substances during the cleaning process; Dry ice cleaning is currently the latest and most environmentally friendly cleaning technology, which solves many problems existing in traditional cleaning methods.
- The cleaning medium adopts block shaped dry ice, constant pressure feeding ice conveying, pressure regulation and ice volume regulation functions, and is operated with an XYZ axis robotic arm to achieve refined operations. It is suitable for deburring and PCBA board cleaning with tooling and molds.
- Connects to SMT lines for inline operation; no production halt for stencil removal cleaning.
- Dry cleaning leaves no moisture; stencils can be used for printing right after cleaning.
- No abrasive medium, protects thin & coated stencils against abrasion.
- Synchronizes with printing rhythm automatically, cutting insufficient solder & printing offset defects.
- Closed clean cleaning, dust-free and pollution-free, suitable for cleanrooms.
- Fully automatic operation saves labor with low long-term maintenance cost.
- The XD-8GS series inline dry ice cleaning machine is compatible with various models of automatic printing machines and boasts strong compatibility.
Why choose this product?
The XD-8GS Inline Dry Ice Blasting Cleaning Machine can be linked to SMT production lines for continuous operation without disassembly or soaking, producing no secondary wastewater residues.Cleaning via sublimation of low-temperature dry ice leaves no stains and will not damage PCB substrates and precision electronic components. It removes flux residues, solder balls and greasy dirt while shortening downtime for cleaning and lowering production line loss caused by shutdowns.The XD-8GS Inline Dry Ice Blasting Cleaning Machine is applicable to inline cleaning procedures before and after reflow soldering and AOI inspection, featuring lower long-term operation and maintenance costs.
How It Works
- Solid dry ice pellets are accelerated and ejected by high-pressure airflow.
- Dry ice sublimates rapidly upon impact, absorbing heat and bursting.
- Dirt peels off boards due to impact force and thermal expansion & contraction.
- Contaminants are extracted by airflow with no wastewater or residues.
- No water contact throughout the process to protect PCB components.
Application Process
- The XD-8GS SMT Inline Cleaning System docks with the SMT production line and activates linkage mode.
- PCBs are automatically conveyed into the cleaning chamber.
- Sensors locate boards, then dry ice nozzles perform precise spraying.
- Dry ice removes contaminants, and the negative pressure system extracts dirt.
- After cleaning, PCBs exit to the next working procedure.
- The filter system purifies the chamber simultaneously.
Requirements
- Equipped with dry and clean high-pressure air source.
- The XD-8GS continuous dry ice blasting unit is connected to a stable industrial power supply.
- Well ventilated working area.
- Equip supporting dust removal negative pressure recovery device.
- Keep environment away from humidity and high temperature.
- Smooth and stable PCB conveying track.
- Replenish food-grade dry ice regularly.
What It Is Used For
- Remove flux residues on PCB surface inline.
- Strip solder balls, grease and soldering slag.
- Clean PCBs between reflow soldering and AOI processes.
- Clean dirt attached to fixtures and carriers.
- Avoid circuit board moisture corrosion without water washing.
- The XD-8GS continuous dry ice blasting unit improves inspection yield and reduces defective products.
Conclusion
The XD-8GS inline flux residue cleaning machine can be directly connected to SMT production lines and automatic printers to perform non-stop inline dry cleaning for stencils.
Adopting the principle of contaminant removal through dry ice sublimation, the XD-8GS inline flux residue cleaning machine contains no abrasives, so it will not scratch precision coated stencils and PCBs. No moisture remains after cleaning, and stencils can be put into printing operation right away.
It automatically clears solder paste and flux residues inside stencil apertures in synchronization with printing cycles, drastically reducing defective issues like insufficient solder and printing displacement. Its enclosed clean structure is well suited for cleanroom conditions.
With automatic operation and low maintenance costs, the XD-8GS inline flux residue cleaning machine is widely deployed in PCB production lines for consumer electronics and automotive electronics, helping manufacturers raise printing yield and production efficiency.
- No shutdown required. The machine cleans stencils synchronously online, enabling continuous production.
Will cleaning precision coated stencils scratch the surface coating?
- No scratches occur. It adopts pure dry ice blasting without abrasive media to fully protect stencil coating.
Warranty period?
- -The entire machine is covered by a one-year warranty, with free technical support provided after that year.
Do you provide installation and commissioning?
- On-site installation and commissioning will incur additional fees, including accommodation and airfare.
Shipping method?
- Typically, shipping is by sea or land. Air freight is more expensive for urgent needs.
