For SMT stencil printer wipe systems

ZESTRON® SW is a solvent-based cleaner with a high flash point, which was specifically designed for the use in SMT printers without vacuum drying. ZESTRON® SW achieves reproducible cleaning results and dries residue-free, thus it increases the reliability of the printing process.

Advantages compared to other cleaners:

  • Due to its wide process window ZESTRON® SW reliably removes solder pastes from the stencil underside
  • Dries fast and residue-free on stencils after dry wipe
  • Good delineation stability and reduced solder balling
  • Unlike Isopropanol (flash point: 12°C/54°F) ZESTRON® SW (flash point: 67°C/153°F) dramatically increases operational safety while operating stencil printing equipment
  • Based on non-halogen, organic solvents
  • Biodegradable
  • Reduces the amount of cleaning cycles

Area of Specific Application:

  • Stencil underside wiping in printers

Process:

  • SMT printer with or without vacuum drying

Contamination:

  • Solder paste (unsoldered)
  • SMT adhesives
