HIGH VOLUME
AUTO CO2 CLEANING SYSTEM
The CleanFlexTM automated spray cleaning
system is an extremely economical and
flexible robotic precision cleaning
solution. Proven in critical
applications, its cost-per-clean and
absolute consistency are unmatched. Twin
Omega™ modules purify, condense and
store ultraclean liquid CO2
from low cost bulk CO2 gas.
Since it’s a single-use cleaning
solution, you’ll never get drag-out from
previous parts. Every recipe uses virgin
material so the results are exactly the
same, month after month. And unlike any
type of contact cleaning method,
SnoShear™ can’t generate residuals as
its dry ice snowballs complete vaporize.
Your parts are Clean… pure and simple.

|
Engineered for
reliability, it will thoroughly clean
thousands of parts per day with minimal
operator labor. They simply load pallets
through the light curtain protected port
onto the four-bay carousel. Automatic parts
detection triggers up to 10 different
recipes, ensuring instantaneous particulate
and thin film removal. Pre-programmed
cleaning motions provide accurate delivery,
down tiny orifices and across precision
assemblies.
Angles of impact, nozzle distance,
speed-of-trajectory and host of other
variables are custom tailored to match the
specific needs of your parts. Plus you’ll
enjoy an easy to use touch screen interface
that allows you to adjust key parameters.
Exclusive independent controls for thrust
and snow generation, snow temperature
monitoring and a full range additional I/O
complete the package. The fully enclosed
work zone is ruggedly built for years of
operation within standard or clean room
conditions.

FLEXIBLE AUTOMATED CLEANING
Now
SnoShear™ cleaning and BlueFire™ CO2
plasma technology are combined in a
large format surface prep system. The
SnoBot™ Workcell series can handle
substrates or fixtures up to 24 inches
square providing cleaning and surface
modification like never before.
Within the interlocked and exhausted
enclosure, parts are thoroughly
scrubbed with pure snowballs to remove
gross surface contamination. Momentum
transfer blasts particles away while
the instantaneous solvent power of
|
|
|
liquid CO2 creates quickly
removed gels. Then a powerful jet of
BlueFire™ plasma breaks the bonds of tough
organics like a jackhammer with a
microscopic combination of UV light,
ozone, oxygen radicals and heat. A final
pass with CO2 snow blows
sub-micron debris away.
Test results prove parts are hyper clean,
better than dangerous solvents and without
costly and time-consuming multiple
processing stations. Your parts are ready
for wire bonding, gluing, imprinting,
assembly or other secondary operations
where reduced surface tension makes
coatings flow rapidly and completely. |

Flexible Automated Cleaning
SnoShear™ cleaning is an extremely rapid
process. In a fraction of a second it
removes thin films, fluxes and particles.
It leaves no residue for it uses only
clean, non-toxic carbon dioxide and no
drying is required.
Its' 5mm circle of cleanliness is perfect
for spot cleaning complex components or
bonding pads on stuffed circuit cards. For
larger areas this high efficiency plume
can be sped at 300mm a second or even
faster. Imagine pristine optics, crisp
ceramic parts or sensitive assemblies
quickly adding to your bottom line.
