Printed Circuit Board Cleaner

Power Cyclone PCB Cleaner

Uses a horizontal vibrating-type ESD brush. Its unique design with strong ability to remove dust and particles helps customers achieve contamination free products.

  • Inline, quickly and efficiently removes dust and particulates from PCB surface before solder application
  • Reduce defects with Power Cyclone’s high removal rate
  • Cleans using an innovative micro bubble washing system

NIX Solution to Particulates

Power Cyclone 3D helps our customers achieve the high quality they continually pursue.
This PCB cleaner is the answer to your cleaning needs.

Recently, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of customers implementing PCB cleaners before solder application in the mounting process.
Initially, cleaners were only implemented in lines where value-added PCBs and high-quality PCBs were mounted. Recently, however, there is a growing number of manufacturers who are making efforts to set themselves apart from the competition on a global scale and gain constant business from their clients by demanding dust-free PCBs and achieving clean plants and zero defects within the entire company or factory.
The NIX Power Cyclone 3D provides unprecedented dust and particle removal performance to dramatically reduce bleeding, bridges, missing solder, insufficient solder, and other defects caused by particulates.

FAQ

    • What is the lifetime of the brush?
    • On average, a single brush can last one year. (At 2,000 PCBs a day for a total of 480,000 PCBs a year.)
    • What happens to the collected dust?
    • The dust and particles from the board are removed by the horizontal vibrating brush and collected by a dust collector.
    • What is the material of the brush?
    • You can find out after signing the non-disclosure agreement.
    • How does it compare to the cleaning performance of cleaners from other manufacturers?
    • See the Customer Evaluation Results.
    • Is a double-sided type available?
    • Choose from an inline-type top surface cleaner (standard) or an inline-type double-sided cleaner (optional, patent pending).
      A unit type for use with an existing conveyor is also available.
