The YES Il-500 is an in-line plasma cleaner. The YES Il-500 is used for plasma cleaning of lead frames.[1][2]
What it is
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedPlasma cleaning tools generate an ionized process gas and expose the work surface to reactive species that break down organic residues and lift light contamination from the surface. In-line plasma cleaning tools move parts through a treatment zone so cleaning can be integrated into a production sequence.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedPlasma cleaning commonly sits between fabrication or handling steps that can leave organic residue and downstream steps that require a cleaner, more wettable, or more bondable surface. Plasma cleaning is often used as a surface-preparation step ahead of coating, joining, encapsulation, or inspection.
