RemUVa is designed to remove coatings from finished assemblies. Has a fully configurable nozzle to permit working on smaller areas or to remove coating across a larger area. Reportedly does not damage adjacent devices, interconnects or PCBs. Is a bench-top powder abrasion system designed to remove conformal coatings, including UV40. Is equipped with adjustable powder flow control and air pressure regulation. Uses an abrasive media known as carbo-blast. Uses a point ioniser to reduce ESD from reaching levels that could potentially damage components.
