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?

GOEPEL electronic Expands Sales and Services in UK and Ireland
July 16, 2019 | GOEPEL ElectronicEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The Cambridge-based GOEPEL electronics Ltd. has added a new technical sales engineer. Mark Daglish is now responsible for the company’s product ranges of embedded JTAG Solutions equipment as well as inspection solutions such as automated optical inspection (AOI), automated x-ray inspection (AXI) and solder paste inspection (SPI) systems.
Daglish is an electronics test engineer with more than 40 years’ experience in the electronics industry. He has come from GE Aviation Systems, where he was responsible for PCB assembly DfT analysis and boundary scan test development. Previous rolls have encompassed the implementation of ICT and functional board test packages whilst the roll of customer project manager at SPEA UK provided detailed insight into the application of roving probe test solutions. He is a specialist in PCB assembly test strategy selection and the integration of Embedded JTAG Solutions. Furthermore, Mark Daglish will be responsible for sales of AOI/AXI/SPI systems, addressing a hugely challenging electronics production market in the British and Irish isles.
“Joining the GOEPEL team is a truly inspiring opportunity. GOEPEL understand the challenges presented by modern electronics assembly and provide class leading solutions to address these challenges. Efficient and effective test strategies need to cover the entire defect spectrum obtaining coverage from all test operations. The GOEPEL tool range delivers throughout the PCB assembly process from 3D optical and x-ray inspection through to the structural and functional performance test made possible with embedded JTAG solutions. It’s an exciting time to be a test engineer,” said Daglish.
GOEPEL electronic is a leading provider of innovative test and inspection solutions for printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) and electronic devices and systems. The company is divided into four divisions:
- Automotive Test Solutions
- Embedded JTAG Solutions
- Industrial Function Test
- Inspection Solutions AOI•AXI•SPI•IVS

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
12/11/2024 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineStan Farnsworth, director of customer satisfaction at PulseForge, discusses the advancements in photonic soldering that highlight its energy efficiency and versatility. Over the past two years, the company has refined its applications for flexible substrates and energy reduction, finding that photonic soldering allows the processing of materials that typically aren’t thermally compatible and offers significant energy savings compared to traditional methods.
