Alpha Assembly Solutions is introducing a robust portfolio of product solutions for flexible, formable and printed electronics at the IDTechEx Show taking place on May 10th-11th in Berlin, Germany. Alpha will be exhibiting jointly with MacDermid Autotype, under the MacDermid Performance Solutions business at Booth #J23.
The ALPHA Product offering includes Silver Inks, Carbon Inks, Dielectric Inks, Solder Pastes and Electronic Adhesives that meet the demanding performance and reliability requirements of flexible and printed electronic circuits. These materials are ideal for:
- Flexible PCBs for assembly of conventional devices and packages such as ICs, Processors or MEMS on circuited flexible substrates.
- Printed Electronic Circuitry for fabricating membrane touch switches, sensors, RFIDs, etc.
“The high performance, flexibility and enhanced durability of Alpha’s new products are ideal for applications where consistency and convenience are important, such as membrane touch switches, automotive and other industrial controls”, said Dr. Bawa Singh, EVP of Technology and Corporate Development for Alpha Assembly Solutions. “This provides a substantial benefit on performance and cost to designers who are looking for high reliability materials to enable their sophisticated multilayer designs.”
Alpha’s sister company, MacDermid Autotype, will also be exhibiting within the same space, located at Booth #J23. They are a global supplier of high quality precision coated films and materials for use in Electronics, Automotive and Printing industries.

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.
