Alpha to Present on New Tin Applications at ITRI Asia Tin Summit
November 15, 2016 | Alpha Assembly SolutionsEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Alpha Assembly Solutions will present on consumption and new tin applications at the ITRI Asia Tin Week, which will be held from November 21–24 in Shanghai, China.
"Changes of Tin Application in Electronics Assembly Industry" will be presented November 23 by Valentijn Van Velthoven, Regional Vice President of Asia Pacific for Alpha Assembly Solutions, a part of the MacDermid Performance Solutions group of businesses.
"Considering the change of macro environments, I would like to present the link between the macro trends we see in our everyday world and how they impact solders, how they are being used, what drives the markets, and ultimately, how they affect demand for solder and alloys," said Valentijn. His presentation will specifically focus on photovoltaic, power electronics and LED industries.
Asia Tin Week, organized by the global tin association, ITRI, comprises of two main formal sessions: the ITRI Asia Tin Summit focused on industry and market issues and the China International Solder Technology Forum. Both sessions are simultaneously translated in both English and Mandarin. This is the 4th ITRI event held in China following 2011 in Hangzhou, 2013 in Kunming and 2015 in Shanghai. With strong support from other world leading organizations, this event will provide a comprehensive forum for discussion and networking between members of the global tin industry.

Connect the Dots: Designing for Reality—The Pre-Manufacturing Process
05/08/2024 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsI have been working with Nolan Johnson on a podcast series about designing PCBs for the reality of manufacturing. By sharing lessons learned over a long career in the PCB industry, we hope to shorten learning curves and help designers produce better boards with less hassle and rework. Episode 2 deals with the electronic pre-manufacturing process. Moving from CAD (computer-aided design) to CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) is a key step in PCB manufacturing. CAM turns digital designs into instructions that machines can use to actually build the PCB.
