SMM-1100 Module Selection Guide: Configuring a Multi-Module PCBA Cleaning Cell

The SMM-1100 is an offline, water-based multi-module cleaning platform for PCBAs, pallets, and fixtures. This guide matches its four module types to typical cleaning jobs.

What is this machine used for?

It removes flux residue, solder paste misprints, and contamination after wave soldering or reflow—without solvents. Four module types can be combined freely:

• Ultrasonic & spraying – cavitation bubbles plus jet spray
• Air bubble & spraying agitation – underwater jets plus bubble agitation
• Dynamic spraying – high-pressure shower cleaning from all angles
• Drying – recirculating ducted hot air, digital temperature display

Selecting modules by cleaning job

• Post-wave or post-reflow flux residue: ultrasonic & spraying to wash, dynamic spraying to rinse, drying to finish.
• Pallets, fixtures, and squeegee blades: air bubble & spraying agitation; 0.3 MPa jets reach blind pockets.
• Fine-pitch, tight-clearance boards: dynamic spraying cleans from all angles without dead spots.

How it fits into a complete line

1. After wave soldering or reflow, to remove flux residues
2. Cleans misprinted PCBs, pallets, fixtures, and squeegee blades
3. Offline batch platform—complements inline SME5600 cleaners

ROI perspective

The 80 L operating volume and 40 L spray reservoir limit water and chemistry use, while built-in bag filtration extends wash-liquid life.

FAQ

How does it differ from an inline cleaner?

Offline multi-module batch platform; inline units such as the SME5600 handle conveyorized flow.

Can I add modules later?

Yes—stages combine flexibly, so capacity can grow without replacing the machine.

What liquid does it use?

Water-based cleaning solution or deionized water; no solvent is required.

What can it clean besides PCBAs?

Pallets, fixtures, squeegee blades, and stencil screens.
