Cleaning products for electronics production
Emil Otto develops fluxes and cleaning media in the company's own laboratory that are ideal for demanding tasks.
We support the production of reliable end products with our proven consumables. After all, many of our customers manufacture safety-relevant products such as brakes, drives, camera systems, sensors and automation solutions. Operational safety is the top priority here. That is why we are constantly working on new, even better solutions in our laboratory. These activities are led by experienced chemists who draw on the extensive knowledge and formulations of our company's more than 100-year history.
Our cleaning products significantly reduce or even completely eliminate the need for rework. Our fluxes from the Multiflux range make it possible to reduce manufacturing costs in wave and selective soldering, manual and repair soldering and dip soldering.
This also applies to our water-based fluxes, which we also offer as concentrates. As the concentrates are not considered hazardous goods, this also minimizes transport and storage costs.
The importance of cleaning products in electronics
Electronic assemblies are sensitive. During production, residues of soldering materials, grease and other contaminants can accumulate on the circuit boards and components. These residues can not only impair electrical functions, but also lead to corrosion and other long-term damage. However, surface cleaning with high-quality cleaning products can ensure both the performance and service life of electronic devices.
The same applies to the soldering systems used for production and the associated tools, such as stencils and painting frames. These components must also be cleaned regularly to ensure their reliable, precise and long-lasting use. Cleaning the SMT stencils in particular is essential. Only a clean stencil can guarantee error-free solder paste printing, which is the basis for high-quality, reproducible electronics. A reliable SMT process therefore starts with a clean printing stencil.
Our product range
Emil Otto offers a wide range of cleaning products tailored to the special requirements of the electronics industry. These include
- Cleaning agent for printed circuit boards: PCB cleaners are specially formulated to effectively remove stubborn flux residues and other contaminants from PCBs without damaging the sensitive components.
- ESD-safe cleaning products: Electrostatic discharge is a major problem in electronics. Our ESD-safe cleaning agents prevent static electricity from damaging electronic components. The ESD cleaning agents are therefore ideal for use in ESD-protected areas.
- Machine cleaner: Our special cleaning agents are designed to clean soldering systems and remove residues from condensate traps and from soldering and painting frames, stencils, nozzles and dispensing needles.
Other cleaning products such as Disinfectant complete our portfolio.
