AIM to Highlight REL61 at the SMTA Michigan Expo & Tech Forum
May 16, 2018 | AIM SolderEstimated reading time: 1 minute
AIM Solder is pleased to announce their participation at the SMTA Michigan Expo & Tech Forum, scheduled to take place on May 22, 2018 at Laurel Manor in Livonia, MI. AIM Solder will highlight its novel REL electronic solders, REL22 and REL61.
AIM’s new alloys provide the PCB assembly industry with unique solutions to address the limitations of current industry offerings. REL22 is an award-winning, high reliability alloy with durability characteristics that double the reliability of SAC305 in harsh environments. REL61 is a low silver solder alloy that solves the process challenges associated with many other low/no silver solder alloys. With a 10°C lower melting temperature and superior wetting performance versus SAC305, REL61 can lower process temperatures, prevent PCB damage, and reduce costs and waste. AIM’s REL alloys are available in paste, wire and bar formats and are engineered for reliability, usability, and cost effectiveness.
Along with their REL alloys, AIM will showcase its full line of advanced solder materials, including its solder pastes, liquid fluxes, tin/lead and lead-free alloys. To discover all of AIM’s products and services, visit the company at the SMTA Michigan Expo & Tech Forum for more information and to speak with one of AIM’s knowledgeable staff members.
