Abstract

There are many factors to consider for cleaning and inspection operations within the cleanroom-based manufacturing process flow. For example, automated part transfer systems (vacuum-picks) that are not cleaned regularly can be a source of contamination. Particles and residues generated during assembly and test processes accumulate on the support equipment and can transfer to subassemblies during handling. Carbon dioxide cleaning is a proven strategy for improving particle and residue cleanliness in precision manufacturing processes for support equipment as well as assemblies during build to reduce particle and residue burden.
