Current IssueSoldering Technologies
Soldering is the heartbeat of assembly, and new developments are taking place to match the rest of the innovation in electronics. There are tried-and-true technologies for soldering. But new challenges in packaging, materials, and sustainability may be putting this key step in flux.
The 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?

PVA to Exhibit Conformal Coating Systems at the ElectronTechExpo
March 27, 2019 | PVAEstimated reading time: 1 minute
PVA will exhibit at the ElectronTechExpo, scheduled to take place April 15-17, 2019 in Moscow, Russia. The company will showcase the Delta 6 conformal coating/dispensing system known for the ability to dispense the Belhim material UR231 as well as the ST100S and CAM200 manual conformal coating systems in Pavilion 3, Hall 13, Stand B535.
The ST100S is a digital shot timer used for syringe dispensing. This compact controller is an economic and ergonomic solution for improving the waste, inaccuracies, and clean up associated with many manual processes. The ST100S is ideal for chemistries packaged in syringes such as solder paste, UV adhesives, and masking material.
The ST100S has many integrated features including:
- Digital timer with LED display and 0.001 – 99.99 second time range
- Manual, timed, or teach modes
- Adjustable analog vacuum suck-back for clean cycle stops
- Integrated pressure control
- Electric foot pedal and power cord
- Built in regulator and gauge
- Sample PVA needle tips / 30cc syringe and air cap
- 9-pin serial port connection
The CAM200 is an all plastic handheld valve suitable for dispensing low to medium viscosity cyanoacrylate adhesives and anaerobic chemistries via a unique floating diaphragm process. Depressing the CAM200 finger switch allows a diaphragm to flex and permits material to flow through the valve.
The diaphragm will terminate the dispensing process as the finger switch is released. The valve’s ergonomic wand design makes handheld dispensing easier than ever. The CAM200 can be utilized in applications requiring dots, beads, encapsulation or potting.

Book Excerpt: The Printed Circuit Assembler’s Guide to... Low-Temperature Soldering, Vol. 2, Chapter 5
12/23/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamChapter 5 introduces the advantages of using low-temperature soldering for through-hole components, including cost efficiency, reliability improvement, and reduced warpage. Also covered: the evaluation of different fluxes and the performance of HRL3 in wave soldering and selective soldering processes.
Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
12/13/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007This week, Peter Tranitz discusses the upcoming Pan-European Electronics Design Conference, set for Jan. 29-30 in Vienna, Austria. Pete Starkey brings us a review of the most recent EIPC Technical Snapshot webinar, which featured a global PCB maker update by Dr. Hayao Nakahara. Don't miss our interview with Manfred Huschka, who explains how companies can begin their own China Plus One plan. Stan Farnsworth breaks down photonic soldering and discusses its use in soldering materials that are not typically compatible. I also enjoyed Dan Beaulieu’s discussion on the value of consistency, and why just showing up for work is half the battle, especially in an inconsistent, evolving industry like ours.
Advancing Photonic Soldering
