Indium Corporation to Feature AuSn Precision Preforms at Space Tech Expo
July 27, 2020 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Indium Corporation will feature its precision AuSn preforms for high-reliability aerospace applications during the Space Tech Expo Connect virtual exhibition from Aug. 10-13.
Aerospace applications require materials with exacting tolerances that perform well under the most extreme circumstances. Indium Corporation’s suite of leading-edge materials and technology expertise offer solutions for the challenges of today with an eye to those of the future.
Indium Corporation’s AuLTRA® ThInFORMS™—0.00035” thick (0.00889mm or 8.89?m) 80Au20Sn preforms—improve the overall operational efficiency of high-output lasers commonly used by the aerospace industry by helping combat common issues, such as:
- Shorting—reduced solder volume inhibits wicking up the die, minimizing the risk of shorting
- Poor thermal transfer—the ultra-thin 0.00035” preform reduces bond-line thickness (BLT), thus improving thermal transfer and increasing the longevity and performance of the device
Indium Corporation’s off-eutectic AuSn alloy options are designed to control wetting and voiding, producing a high-reliability solder joint for critical high-power, high-frequency applications.
Space Tech’s virtual exhibition gives the worldwide aerospace community an opportunity to interact, discuss, and attend webinars and roundtable sessions in a digital environment. For information on this topic or to chat with our experts, visit Indium Corporation’s virtual booth.

Preventing Surface Prep Defects and Ensuring Reliability
06/10/2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineIn printed circuit board (PCB) fabrication, surface preparation is a critical process that ensures strong adhesion, reliable plating, and long-term product performance. Without proper surface treatment, manufacturers may encounter defects such as delamination, poor solder mask adhesion, and plating failures. This article examines key surface preparation techniques, common defects resulting from improper processes, and real-world case studies that illustrate best practices.
Breaking Silos with Intelligence: Connectivity of Component-level Data Across the SMT Line
06/09/2025 | Dr. Eyal Weiss, CybordAs the complexity and demands of electronics manufacturing continue to rise, the smart factory is no longer a distant vision; it has become a necessity. While machine connectivity and line-level data integration have gained traction in recent years, one of the most overlooked opportunities lies in the component itself. Specifically, in the data captured just milliseconds before a component is placed onto the PCB, which often goes unexamined and is permanently lost once reflow begins.
