Current IssueThe 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?
Solder Printing
In this issue, we turn a discerning eye to solder paste printing. As apertures shrink, and the requirement for multiple thicknesses of paste on the same board becomes more commonplace, consistently and accurately applying paste becomes ever more challenging.

Alpha Featured Low-Temperature Soldering and Die Attach Solutions at the 2018 International Printed Circuit & APEX South China Fair
December 7, 2018 | Alpha Assembly SolutionsEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Alpha Assembly Solutions joined MacDermid Enthone at the 2018 International Printed Circuit & APEX South China Fair, Booth#6H31, Shenzhen, China, December 5-7, 2018.
At the show, Alpha, a part of the MacDermid Performance Solutions group of businesses, exhibited low-temperature solder which allows the customers to learn more about how low-temperature alloys can help reduce power consumption and carbon emissions in the manufacturing process. Low-temperature product technology has ability to increase production yields, reduce component warpage and also reduce board warpage.
In addition, Alpha exhibited die attach solutions which improve reliability and device performance for automotive, alternative energy, transportation, consumer electronics, telecommunications and industrial applications. Alpha’s Argomax® Sinter Technology is well developed to meet and even exceed the demanding quality standards of the power semiconductor industry.
MacDermid Enthone’s circuit board expertise focused this year on enabling technology trends such as the cost savings and miniaturization of MSAP and high frequency. At the show, they featured the fully expanded MacuSpec acid copper metallization portfolio, and the high performance Systek brand of specialty metallizations for IC substrates.
Both Alpha and MacDermid Enthone experts were available to discuss the latest chemical and material solutions providing process predictability and smooth scale-up at every step. These technologies are part of a suite of processing solutions that serve the electronics manufacturing supply chain at every step, from device design, through circuit board production, semiconductor metallization, component assembly, and OEM specification
