Kurtz Ersa Corp., through its subsidiary Kurtz Ersa Mexico, S.A. DE C.V., has expanded its presence in Mexico with the addition of a new demonstration and technology center in Guadalajara. Kurtz Ersa Mexico was established in 2013 as a subsidiary for sales and service of soldering systems, particle foam machines and foundry machines. It now offers the entire spectrum of Ersa soldering systems to its customers and potential customers at the new Guadalajara location.
“Due to the high potential of the Mexican market and the positive experiences in the last years, the opening of our second facility in Mexico is more than legitimated – best thanks to our customers who made this possible,” said Kurtz Ersa CEO Rainer Kurtz, who travelled to the opening ceremony on November 17.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Gold Mitigation for Class 2 Electronics
05/07/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileIn electronic assemblies, the integrity of connections between components is paramount for ensuring reliability and performance. Gold embrittlement and dissolution are two critical phenomena that can compromise this integrity. Gold embrittlement occurs when gold diffuses into solder joints or alloys, resulting in mechanical brittleness and an increased susceptibility to cracking. Conversely, gold dissolution involves the melting away of gold into solder or metal matrices, potentially altering the electrical and mechanical properties of the joint.
