SME-220 Automatic SMT Squeegee Cleaning Machine

The SME-220 cleans solder paste residue from SMT printer squeegees between jobs. The standard fixture described in equipment listings takes six assemblies up to 600 mm long. A rotating holder moves the blades through a programmed wash and rinse, followed by drying. The cycle brings these steps into one cabinet so operators can return clean assemblies to the printer tooling area.

Blade edge and holder fit

When you review a cleaning sample, inspect the blade edge, the joint between the blade and holder and any recessed fasteners where paste can collect. Use an assembly taken straight from production. A bare blade gives a different picture from a complete holder with narrow gaps. Record the blade and holder materials as well, since they help determine which cleaning solution and cycle are appropriate.

Measure the entire assembly before ordering. A blade within the nominal length limit can still have a holder that requires a different clamp. If your line uses several printer brands, send one photo and the outside dimensions for each holder type. GEEKVALUE can use that list to check the fixture for the machine quoted. For a shared cleaner, include the typical number of blades that come off the printers at each changeover.
