SHENMAO Addresses HoP Issues, Improves ICT Testability
September 13, 2017 | SHENMAO America Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
SHENMAO Technology Inc. will introduces its new generation PF606-P140 lead-free solder paste and PF606-P245 lead-free zero-halogen solder paste at the upcoming SMTA International Exhibition, to be held September 19–20, 2017 at the Donald Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois. SHENMAO will be in Booth 534.
Featuring superior continuous high-speed printability and a wide reflow process window for excellent solderability, the PF606-P140 and PF606-P245 prevent head-on-pillow (HoP) issues and can easily fit into highly complicated PCB designs through excellent convergence performance. The PF606-P140 features void performance at 3.7%, while the PF606-P245, 5.5%.
The PF606-P140 and PF606-P245 improve ICT testability with flux completely removed from top of solder to prevent contamination of test pins during test operation. Minimal flux residue gathers near outside of solder joint on the PCB substrate, a substantial improvement over legacy solder pastes.

Preventing Surface Prep Defects and Ensuring Reliability
06/10/2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineIn printed circuit board (PCB) fabrication, surface preparation is a critical process that ensures strong adhesion, reliable plating, and long-term product performance. Without proper surface treatment, manufacturers may encounter defects such as delamination, poor solder mask adhesion, and plating failures. This article examines key surface preparation techniques, common defects resulting from improper processes, and real-world case studies that illustrate best practices.
Breaking Silos with Intelligence: Connectivity of Component-level Data Across the SMT Line
06/09/2025 | Dr. Eyal Weiss, CybordAs the complexity and demands of electronics manufacturing continue to rise, the smart factory is no longer a distant vision; it has become a necessity. While machine connectivity and line-level data integration have gained traction in recent years, one of the most overlooked opportunities lies in the component itself. Specifically, in the data captured just milliseconds before a component is placed onto the PCB, which often goes unexamined and is permanently lost once reflow begins.
