AIM to Highlight REL61 at the SMTA Long Island Expo & Tech Forum
September 13, 2018 | AIM SolderEstimated reading time: 1 minute
AIM Solder is pleased to announce their participation at the SMTA Long Island Expo & Tech Forum, scheduled to take place on October 4, 2018 at the Melville Marriott in Melville, New Year. AIM Solder will highlight its REL electronic solders, REL22 and REL61.
AIM’s 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 Long Island Expo & Tech Forum for more information and to speak with one of AIM’s knowledgeable staff members.

Fresh PCB Concepts: Assembly Challenges with Micro Components and Standard Solder Mask Practices
06/26/2025 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsMicro components have redefined what is possible in PCB design. With package sizes like 01005 and 0201 becoming more common in high-density layouts, designers are now expected to pack more performance into smaller spaces than ever before. While these advancements support miniaturization and functionality, they introduce new assembly challenges, particularly with traditional solder mask and legend application processes.
Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.
