Current IssueSoldering Technologies
Soldering is the heartbeat of assembly, and new developments are taking place to match the rest of the innovation in electronics. There are tried-and-true technologies for soldering. But new challenges in packaging, materials, and sustainability may be putting this key step in flux.
The Rise of Data
Analytics is a given in this industry, but the threshold is changing. If you think you're too small to invest in analytics, you may need to reconsider. So how do you do analytics better? What are the new tools, and how do you get started?
Counterfeit Concerns
The distribution of counterfeit parts has become much more sophisticated in the past decade, and there's no reason to believe that trend is going to be stopping any time soon. What might crop up in the near future?

ULT to Showcase Comprehensive Extraction and Filtration Solutions at productronica 2017
September 19, 2017 | ULT AGEstimated reading time: 1 minute
ULT AG will demonstrate its full range of extraction and filtration technologies for air purification within electronics manufacturing at the upcoming productronica 2017 show in Munich, Germany. The company will present solutions for the efficient and economic removal of airborne pollutants, such as laser fume, soldering fume, gases, vapors, dusts, and odors.
One focal point of ULT’s trade show appearance is the capture and filtration of easily inflammable or explosive dusts and air mixtures, which may occur during surface processing of hard to handle elements, e.g. titanium. The particularly developed safe economic fume extraction and filtration method is based on special filtration and capturing concepts.
Additionally, ULT will introduce the next development stage of its new device control, which allows for system remote control through LAN or WLAN via a webserver. Furthermore, users can read out specific device information, e.g. filter saturation state, performance figures, or the next maintenance date.
Utilizing extraction and filtration systems in electronics manufacturing is a statutory requirement. Companies should also be aware that employees, production equipment, and products must be protected from the impact of hazardous emissions. They are generated during the utilization of laser machines, soldering technology or throughout gluing and welding processes. ULT provides one of the most comprehensive range of turnkey and customized solutions – in particular for hard to purify fine dusts and particulates.
ULT will be in Hall A4, Stand 549.

Book Excerpt: The Printed Circuit Assembler’s Guide to... Low-Temperature Soldering, Vol. 2, Chapter 5
12/23/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamChapter 5 introduces the advantages of using low-temperature soldering for through-hole components, including cost efficiency, reliability improvement, and reduced warpage. Also covered: the evaluation of different fluxes and the performance of HRL3 in wave soldering and selective soldering processes.
Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
12/13/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007This week, Peter Tranitz discusses the upcoming Pan-European Electronics Design Conference, set for Jan. 29-30 in Vienna, Austria. Pete Starkey brings us a review of the most recent EIPC Technical Snapshot webinar, which featured a global PCB maker update by Dr. Hayao Nakahara. Don't miss our interview with Manfred Huschka, who explains how companies can begin their own China Plus One plan. Stan Farnsworth breaks down photonic soldering and discusses its use in soldering materials that are not typically compatible. I also enjoyed Dan Beaulieu’s discussion on the value of consistency, and why just showing up for work is half the battle, especially in an inconsistent, evolving industry like ours.
Advancing Photonic Soldering
