PCB, which stands for Printed Circuit Board, is also known as a printed wiring board, serving as a provider of electrical connections for electronic components. It is present in various electronic products and serves as a carrier for the interconnection of electronic devices such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, transistors, integrated circuits, etc.
PCB boards can be classified according to the number of layers, including single-sided boards, double-sided boards, four-layer boards, six-layer boards, and other multi-layer boards. PCBs are not final products but rather components used in electronic devices. Therefore, the definition of the name is somewhat ambiguous. For example, the motherboard used in personal computers is referred to as the mainboard, not directly as a circuit board, even though a circuit board is present in the mainboard. Similarly, the media may refer to it as an IC board due to the presence of integrated circuit components, but it is not equivalent to a printed circuit board. When we talk about printed circuit boards, we usually refer to bare boards, meaning circuit boards without electronic components mounted on them.
As electronic products become more complex in functionality, the number of components required naturally increases, leading to denser electronic components and circuits on PCB boards. During the manufacturing process of printed circuit boards, pollutants such as residues of solder flux and adhesives, as well as dust and debris generated during the manufacturing process, can accumulate. If the surface of the PCB board cannot be effectively cleaned, electrical resistance and leakage may cause the PCB circuit board to fail, thereby affecting the lifespan of the product.
So, how to clean PCB boards quickly and effectively? Silman Tech PCB cleaning machine can easily handle these issues. It comes equipped with anti-static functionality to thoroughly eliminate static interference. Using a non-contact cleaning method, it achieves a cleaning rate of over 99%, ensuring efficient, stable, and long-lasting cleaning results.
