IPC Releases Through-Hole Component Prep & Hand Soldering Training Video
December 18, 2017 | IPCEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Many through-hole components are manually inserted, and hand soldered into SMT assemblies. This media training program will teach your operators and technicians best industry practices to make sure the job is performed properly and efficiently.
This new video demonstrates manual preparation and hand soldering for through-hole components, including axial, radial and multi-leaded components.
Contents include lead straightening, lead forming, lead clinching, stress relief bends, polarity, wetting, vertical mount components, spacers, DIP lead preparation/straightening and hand soldering.
Through-hole component prep and hand soldering provide the visual training your operators need to safely prepare and install through-hole components onto electronic assemblies, to help reduce costly and time-consuming rework, repairs and scrap.

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.
