Alpha Unveils Solder Paste Innovation for Ultra-fine Feature Printing
June 12, 2017 | Alpha Assembly SolutionsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Alpha Assembly Solutions is introducing its newest solder paste innovation for ultra-fine feature printing and reflow applications.
ALPHA OM-347 is an ultra-cleanable, no-clean, lead-free, zero-halogen solder paste material that can print and reflow Type 4 and Type 5 powder to meet market segments requiring ultra-fine feature applications.
"ALPHA OM-347 is one of the first solder paste formulas introduced specifically designed as an ultra-cleanable, no-clean material," said Traian Cucu, Global Product Manager for Solder Paste at Alpha Assembly Solutions, a part of the MacDermid Performance Solutions Group of Businesses. "It has an outstanding reflow process window that delivers good soldering on CuOSP with excellent coalescence on a broad range of deposit sizes and shows excellent random solder ball and mid-chip solder ball resistance."
This new soldering material from Alpha demonstrates excellent print volume deposit repeatability, thereby providing value to customers by reducing defects that can derive from print process variability.

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.
