Scales, accumulated on some parts of semiconductor equipments such as sputters and CVD during the device fabrication processes, often lower the lifetime of the equipments and production yields. Thus, many equipment parts have be cleaned regularly. In this study, an attempt to establish an effective process to remove scales on the sidewall of collimators located inside the chamber of the sputter was made. The EDX analysis revealed that the scales were composed of Ti and TiN with the columnar structure. Through the trial-and-error experiments, it was found that the etching in the $HNO_3$:$H_2SO_4$:$H_2O$=4:2:4 solution for 5.5 hrs at $67^{circ}C$, after the oxide removal in the HF solution, and the heat-treatment at $700^{circ}C$ for 1 min., was the most effective process for the scale removal.
