Cleanliness Inspector
In every manufacturing process, particle contamination must be kept as low as possible so that there are no functional restrictions of the product. Component cleanliness is crucial and must be measured and assessed. With the expert Evident range of cleanliness inspector solutions, you are able to obtain, process, analyze, and document data for technical component cleanliness inspections, continuously meeting high cleanliness standards. From development to quality control, Evident cleanliness inspector systems provide accurate performance for maximum productivity. Designed to meet component cleanliness standards, our cleanliness inspectors offer intuitive software to guide you through every step of the inspection process. So, whether you’re an expert or a novice, acquiring cleanliness data is quick, easy, and efficient. |

Component Cleanliness FAQs
What is the technical cleanliness workflow for component cleanliness inspections?
When using precise components, each must be completely free of contaminants to ensure they’re working properly and at their full potential. When discussing technical cleanliness, we’re referring to the process of measuring levels of particle contamination within a component to help ensure component cleanliness standards are met and users are left with a high-quality end product. The overall component cleanliness inspection workflow can be broken down into six parts, each of which we discuss in our ‘Breaking Down the Technical Cleanliness Workflow’ blog series, which you can visit below for more information. These are:
Part 1: Preparation.
The first step of a cleanliness inspection is preparation, which includes extraction, filtration, drying, and weighing.
Part 2: Image Acquisition and Particle Measurement.
The second step includes calibrating the image pixel sizes and setting particle measurement parameters to prepare for particle size classification.
Part 3: Particle Size Classification and Particle Count Extrapolation and Normalization.
The third stage of the technical cleanliness workflow includes size classification, particle count extrapolation, and normalization. This includes defining size classes and the defined area being scanned and checked for particles.
Part 4: Contamination Level Calculation.
The fourth step of cleanliness inspection includes calculating contamination levels. This includes defining cleanliness codes and testing maximum approvals.
Part 5: Reflective/Nonreflective Particle and Fiber Identification.
Part five of the cleanliness inspection workflow includes separating reflective (considered metallic) and nonreflective (considered nonmetallic) particles and fiber (noncontaminant particle) identification.
Part 6: Reviewing Results and Reporting.
The final stage of the cleanliness inspection workflow is reviewing your results and creating different types of data reports.
