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?

INSPECTIS AB Launches ‘All-in One’ F30 Full HD Digital Microscope
March 26, 2018 | INSPECTIS ABEstimated reading time: 1 minute
INSPECTIS AB announces the new F30 'All-in-One' Full HD Digital Microscope. New features and superb all-round performance now come together in this convenient, durable, industrial grade package. The F30 joins the popular F30s Full HD Digital Microscope, known for its adaptability and versatility.
The F30s is popular for having established a reputation as the all-around ‘best choice’ for the widest range of visual inspection applications. Now, the F30 combines all features and competitive advantages into an all-in-one system with a convenient plug-and-play format, with LED array and essential built-in controls (e.g., Zoom, Iris, Color Balance).
All basic parameters such as zoom, brightness and color levels can be controlled through on-board buttons on top of the device, and a full range of additional control features and setting memories can be accessed using the HD-020 remote control or via computer software. The F30 also features an auxiliary power socket for use with the new INSPECTIS ring light, providing excellent image quality for such structures as solder joints on PCB assemblies and highly reflective metallic parts, all with minimum glare and reflection.
F30 options include an ESD-protected housing and a built-in laser pointer. The F30 brings uncommon capabilities and advantages to digital microscopy for SMT electronics assembly inspection including Full FHD, 1080p 60 fps HDMI output for lag-free magnified working, superior 30:1 zoom optics with auto-focus, and a generous practical working distance. Objects under inspection are rendered sharp, clear, and large; its 56x screen magnification on a 24” monitor, for example, can be increased up to 200x with auxiliary lenses.
An optional built-in laser pointer aims at the area of interest and assists in quickly locating it on the screen whilst efficient object handling is aided by the full range of thoughtfully-designed accessories.

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
12/11/2024 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineStan Farnsworth, director of customer satisfaction at PulseForge, discusses the advancements in photonic soldering that highlight its energy efficiency and versatility. Over the past two years, the company has refined its applications for flexible substrates and energy reduction, finding that photonic soldering allows the processing of materials that typically aren’t thermally compatible and offers significant energy savings compared to traditional methods.
