AIM Solder is pleased to announce that Timothy O’Neill, Technical Marketing Manager, will present at the SMTA Tijuana Expo & Tech Forum on June 8th, 2017 at the Hotel Marriott Tijuana in Tijuana, B.C., Mexico. Additionally, AIM will highlight its revolutionary REL61 lead-free solder alloy, along with its full line of solder assembly materials.
O’Neill will present the white paper “A Practical Guide to Optimizing Solder Paste Performance for Ultra-Fine Feature Printing,” at the technical forum. This paper explains how to optimize solder paste performance from receiving to reflow. It incorporates theory with best practice to inform the process engineer of the how, what and why of solder paste use. Discussion topics include paste handling, stencil design, printer set up and common defects.
AIM will also highlight its innovative high reliability, lead-free solder alloys. REL61 addresses the most challenging issues with today’s common lead-free alloys, specifically BTC voiding, cost, durability and tin whiskers. It offers a low cost alternative to SAC alloys, with reliability and performance characteristics superior to SAC305 and other low/no-silver solder alloys. REL22™ is a high reliability, high strength lead-free solder alloy for extreme service environments, with reliability equal to Sn/Ag/Bi/Sb/Ni/Cu and a wider process window.
