Material Preparation
Vertical Drying Oven
Precision material preparation equipment specified to your panel size, throughput, and automation level.
View detailsThe Chemical Cleaning Machine (WET-MP-05) handles a defined step in the PCB process flow as part of the material preparation group. It is normally specified together with the cells immediately upstream and downstream of it, which is where most of the yield and cycle-time gains actually come from.
How It Works in Production
During the material preparation stage the Chemical Cleaning Machine processes each panel to a repeatable standard. Process values are driven by recipe, so results stay consistent across shifts and operators rather than depending on manual judgement.
What It Delivers
- Safety interlocks, alarms and guarding designed for a production environment.
- Designed for low maintenance, fast changeover and high equipment uptime.
- Accurate cutting and shearing for consistent panel dimensions.
- Brushing and cleaning for reliable downstream adhesion.
- Automatic loading to feed production lines.
Where It Is Used
Used at the front of the line to cut, clean and prepare copper-clad laminate for all board types.
Configuration and Ordering
The Chemical Cleaning Machine can be supplied as a standalone unit or built into an automated line. Panel-size handling, control software, throughput, and material compatibility are configured to your production mix. As a configured-to-order system, the specification is finalized with our engineers before quotation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What lead time and support come with the Chemical Cleaning Machine?
Lead time is quoted per order once the configuration is fixed. Installation guidance, commissioning support, and spare-parts documentation are provided so the line reaches stable output quickly.
What throughput can the Chemical Cleaning Machine achieve?
Typical throughput is 30-60 panels/hour. Actual figures depend on material thickness, feature density, and the quality target, so treat the rated value as a planning baseline rather than a guarantee.
What does the Chemical Cleaning Machine do in the production line?
The Chemical Cleaning Machine is configured for a specific stage of the wet-processing or precision-machining sequence. It is usually integrated with the handling and rinse stages around it so that throughput and surface quality stay consistent batch to batch.
What is the maximum panel or workpiece size for the Chemical Cleaning Machine?
This configuration is rated for a maximum panel size of —. Larger or thinner stock can usually be accommodated with tooling changes — confirm the exact window for your job before ordering.
