In electronic manufacturing clean production tools are the basic requirement for high quality production standards. Solder frames and carriers from selective soldering machines have to be cleaned on a regular basis, to ensure functionality with the necessary qualitiy. Up-to-date reflow-soldering systems as well as solar process ovens very often have flux management systems (cooling unit, filters, heat exchanges, containers / plates) which during operation will be subject to contamination (flux / colofonium). Thorough cleaning helps to regain proper functioning.
