Alpha's Preform Innovations to be Showcased at WIN Eurasia Automation Show
March 8, 2017 | Alpha Assembly SolutionsEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Alpha Assembly Solutions will have its latest product innovations, including its range of preform products, showcased by ER-SA Elektrik, its distributor for Turkey, at the WIN Eurasia Automation Show in Istanbul on March 16-19, 2017.
Visitors to the show will be able to attend a seminar on Alpha's latest Preform products hosted by Daniele Perico, Alpha’s Preform Sales Development Manager for Europe on Tuesday 16th March. Alpha offers a wide variety of preform products for a large number of applications including wire harness assembly, die attach, power module assembly, solder junction box, electronic and electrical device build and many others.
Alpha’s Preform innovations include products such as ALPHA® Exactalloy® Preforms and ALPHA® TrueHeight® Spacer Blocks. ALPHA® Exactalloy® Preforms in Tape and Reel Packaging provide an automated method to selectively increase solder volume on a per pad basis using standard assembly equipment. The combination of preforms and solder paste optimizes solder volume and enhances joint strength and reliability. Furthermore, using preforms with solder paste for hole fill can eliminate wave soldering, which represents a significant cost saving opportunity. ALPHA® TrueHeight® Spacer Blocks are burr free, non-collapse copper discs coated with a barrier layer of nickel, and finish coated with flash gold to provide precise standoff height.

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.
