USI de Mexico S. A. de C.V. Selects VERSAFLOW 3/66 Dual Track
June 3, 2015 | Kurtz Ersa North AmericaEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Kurtz Ersa North America, a leading supplier of electronics production equipment, announces that it recently sold a new VERSAFLOW 3/66 selective soldering machine to Universal Scientific Industrial de Mexico (USI) S. A. de C.V. The system was installed and is in use at USI’s plant in Jalisco, Mexico.
USI purchased a dual conveyor unit with two fluxers and segmented top and bottom preheaters. Additionally, it has two solder modules and a total of four solder pots within the machine. Enrique Diaz, Industrial Manager, stated, “We chose ERSA because they are the only supplier in the market that offers dual conveyors. In addition to our excellent relationship with the ERSA team, they offer low maintenance costs, high performance and high quality yields close to 100 percent.”
The VERSAFLOW 3/66 is the world’s leading platform for selective soldering. The proven third generation technology offers the highest flexibility and highest volume throughput for PCBs sized up to 24" x 24". The use of high-precision servo gantry systems, electromagnetic pumping systems, dual solder pot capability, top- and bottom-side preheating capability, and modularity make ERSA the leader in selective soldering.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.

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.
