Abstract

Multilaminate printed circuit boards have at least three conductor layers separated by two insulator layers. After drilling through the boards, cleaning of the drilled hole is accomplished by forcing a slurry of granular abrasive grit in a liquid carrier through the hole. Manifolds direct the slurry through the holes thereby cleaning them.
