SME-6300 keeps high-volume SMT lines flowing; SME5600D and AC510 cabinets serve high-mix EMS cells. Both run water-based chemistry with monitored DI rinse and closed-loop filtration.
Board sizes, flux types and cycle times below are quoted from official Southern Machinery datasheets.
Continuous wash–rinse–dry tunnel integrated into the line. Mitsubishi PLC safety logic, angle-adjustable air knives, three-stage drying and a 1000 L/h DI rinse loop. Removes rosin, no-clean and water-soluble flux, solder paste balls and organic/inorganic residues.

Tell us your product mix and we will spec it — this section shows how we typically match lines to factories.
Hard integrated after reflow or wave. Continuous flow, SMEMA hand-off, ~40 m³/min exhaust sizing — the default for automotive and telecom boards.
Two baskets per load, recipe programs per product family. The pragmatic choice when changeovers beat throughput.
Start aqueous cleaning where solvent wiping used to live. Small footprint, simple utilities, documented process.
Numbers per SME5600D / SME-6300 datasheets. Send your board mix and we will model payback against your scrap + rework rate.
Typical site preparation for Southern Machinery aqueous cleaning equipment. Exact utilities for each model are in its manual.
Level concrete, service aisle both sides, floor layout drawing supplied with order.
3-phase AC380V + compressed air 0.5–0.7 MPa; water inlet & drain per layout.
Match net height 900±25 mm and SMEMA signals to upstream/downstream machines.
Load recommended aqueous concentrate at suggested ratio; verify sump heaters.
First-article boards + ROI/cleanliness test (ionic contamination check on request).
