Nordson SELECT to Exhibit Latest Selective Soldering Technology at the 2018 SMTA Guadalajara Expo
November 2, 2018 | Nordson SELECTEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Nordson SELECT, a Nordson company, will exhibit its latest selective soldering technologies in conjunction with Repstronics at the 2018 SMTA Guadalajara Expo and Tech Forum, scheduled to take place November 14-15, 2018 at the Expo Guadalajara in Guadalajara, Mexico.
On exhibit will be the Cerno 103IL a fully-configured SMEMA compatible selective soldering system equipped with standard features including interchangeable solder pots and pumps compatible with tin-lead, lead-free and HMP solder alloys. The Cerno 103IL comes standard with an automated fiducial location and correction system that provides single click fiducial teach capability, seamless fiducial recognition and true automated alignment and skew correction of a printed circuit board. Also available is an optional in-line flux and preheat module with concurrent fluxing and preheating that provides significantly increased production throughput.
The Cerno 103IL features SWAK-OS 4.0 software which is a graphics-based software with seamless board scanning capability. This highly intuitive software includes integrated board scanning which creates a true-to-scale image of an entire board, fully-automated fiducial alignment and board mapping functions. The board mapping and pattern recognition capability can detect a correct board assembly, x-out circuits or missing components.

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.
