How I.C.T’s PCBA Cleaning Boosted Efficiency in Mexico’s EMS Sector

In Mexico's competitive EMS industry, PCBA cleaning can make or break production. I.C.T's advanced cleaning systems helped one Tijuana factory overcome residue issues, cutting rejects by 6% and rework time by 60%. From tailored equipment to hands-on training, their solutions deliver measurable results for SMT lines.

Teaching SMT processes, I've seen factories struggle with PCBA cleaning as designs get more complex. A Tijuana EMS plant I visited faced a familiar issue: residue buildup was causing a 10% reject rate, especially on high-density boards for consumer electronics. Their outdated cleaning system couldn't handle the precision needed, leading to costly rework and delays. I recommended I.C.T, known for their advanced SMT solutions.

I.C.T's PCBA cleaning systems, combining ultrasonic and spray-in-air technology, were a perfect fit. The machines' adjustable settings allowed operators to clean diverse board types without damage. During my visit, I saw their lead engineer, Miguel, calibrate the system for a new IoT board, impressed by its intuitive controls. I.C.T's team also provided in-depth training, ensuring operators were confident.
The results spoke for themselves: reject rates fell to 4%, and cleaning time dropped by 30%, freeing up capacity. One client noted their wearable devices now passed quality checks consistently. I.C.T's global service ensured quick support, minimizing downtime. For EMS factories, I.C.T's focus on customized SMT equipment and reliable support is a model for efficiency.
