Digicom Electronics Wins 2012 Global Technology Award for its Diamond Track Cleaning Process
Digicom Electronics has won the 2012 Global Technology Award in the category of Contract Services for its new Diamond Track Cleaning Process. Digicom's proprietary combination of chemicals, temperature, wash cycles, timing, and equipment results in printed circuit boards that have zero levels of ion contamination and are 75% cleaner than the IPC's* highest level of clean. This level of cleaning eliminates failures caused by board contamination.
We aDigicom's cleaning process is repeatable, reliable, and uses an advanced in-line cleaning system to increase speed and throughput. With Digicom's unique Diamond Track Cleaning Process, products are less susceptible to corrosion-induced failures, thus reducing the need for maintenance or repair. The cost savings to Digicom's customers, especially those with military, aerospace and medical device applications, are considerable.
The 2012 Global Technology Awards is sponsored by Global SMT & Packaging magazine. A team of international judges selects the best innovations for electronics manufacturing products and services. Entries were judged on innovation, speed/throughput improvements, quality contribution, cost benefits, environmental consideration, ease of use/implementation, and maintainability/repairability.
The award recognizes the best new innovations in the printed circuit assembly and packaging industries. It was presented at the SMTA International Conference in Orlando, FL on October 16, 2012.
