conformal Coating Dipping made Easy with the DS101 Conformal Coating Dip System

The DS101 Conformal Coating Dip System is a precision built, floor standing, conformal coating dip machine for medium to high volume batch processing of printed circuit boards.

Operating completely on compressed air and utilising an air over oil pneumatic system, the DS101 dip coating system offers total precision regulated speed control to allow a wide range of conformal coatings to be correctly coated and an unparalleled repeatable high tolerance of coating thickness to be achieved.

Being entirely pneumatic the machine is safe to use with flammable materials, and the automatic dip cycle process provides a smooth immersion and withdrawal rate which eliminates air entrapment and ensures an even film.

Conformal Coating Dip technique: Horizontal dipping

 Automatic Dip Coating is one of the most efficient methods for application of conformal coatings and is excellent for all volume production whether large or small.

The process of dipping a circuit boards into a conformal coating material contained in a tank ensures complete coverage, including underneath components and around difficult large 3D boards and there is no over spray or material wastage

The technique of horizontal dipping allows certain components not to be masked. This conformal coating dipping Video showing the DS101 Conformal Coating Dip system explains vertical and horizontal dipping of PCBs in conformal coating material.

Conformal Coating Removal Video Using the WS100 Wet Stripping System

Stripping of unwanted conformal coating from a PCB can be a simple process but depends on what conformal coating is to be removed or stripped, the area of coating to be removed, where the conformal coating is and the type of components on the board.

The WS100 Conformal coating Stripping System has been designed for complete removal & stripping of conformal coating from circuit boards.

The WS100 consists a workstation of four tanks contained behind a safety screen, filled with appropriate stripping materials for the conformal coating material to be removed.

The principle of operation is that the circuit board to be stripped is manually placed by the operator in the first of the tanks for initial ‘rough’ removal and softening of the coating. Each tank has a rinse pipe and solvent pump fitted for gentle circulation and rinsing of the fluid and the operator working behind the safety screen is able to gradually remove the majority of coating, leaving a small amount of residue remaining.

We just sprayed PCBs with UV40 through a selective robotic system. However, we were unable to cure immediately with our UV conveyor and had to wait 3 days whilst the boards were wet. However, they didn’t cure? Why does the UV40 secondary cure mechanism state 2-3 hours pot life?We only had them in light for a short period and they were stored in dark drying cabinets most of the time.

Humiseal UV40 is more sensitive to light than moisture and that is why after 3 days it was still not cured. Also, the humidity level in the drying cabinet was probably quite low. The catalyst in the UV40 should not degrade with time.

The Humiseal UV40 TDS states 2 to 3 hours of pot life if for example you have a dip tank full of UV40 exposed completely to light and moisture. When the viscosity of a conformal coating is increasing by double of its initial value then the pot life has been reached. This is the definition of the pot life. It would still be dippable but you will not have the same consistency (film thickness, homogeneity, etc…)
