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.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
