Learning With Leo: Soldering—The Interpretation Problem
Laserssel, the leading provider of laser selective reflow (LSR) to the electronics industry, has today announced SW Systems Technology as its representative for Southwest US and Mexico.
“Signing SW Systems to represent Laserssel has brought a breath of fresh air to our sales and marketing efforts,” commented Denis Barbini, Ph.D, managing director of the USA for Laserssel. “Scott’s 20 plus years of EMS ownership make him and his team an ideal technical sales rep. This is going to be a very strong partner for us.”
Laser selective reflow (LSR) is designed to deliver a uniform defocused laser beam over a specifically tailored area on a PCB. The uniform defocused beam is controlled and delivered to the product via the BSOM (beam shaping optic module system) on user defined area. This unique feature permits the user to implement novel soldering solutions not possible with past techniques. It also allows the selective application of energy to locations that require soldering while not heating up potentially thermally sensitive areas. LSR is potentially a means to also mitigate or even eliminate the warpage of various packages. It provides super reliable and fast, only 1~3 seconds laser bonding per selected area, bonding process. It was made possible by highly uniform optic system and distinctive recipe developed by Laserssel.
In its 30th year, Southwest Systems Technology, Inc. has offices in Texas and Mexico, serving the electronic and semiconductor manufacturing industries. The company offers industry-leading capital equipment, benchtop tools and manufacturing consumables.
