Ultrasonic Cleaning Playstation 3

Here is a quick video of a Playstation 3 80GB motherboard being cleaning in our ultrasonic bath before being reworked.

We do this for all boards which have been reworked before as we don't know what flux they used and it's always best not to mix flux. We also get good clean lifts for reballing.

As you can see all the thermal paste getting removed from under the CELL and RSX chip, some people seem to get this everywhere.
