MicroCare Corporation, in collaboration with other industry affiliates is participating in a technical symposium at SMTA New England Expo on October 8, 2019 at the Boxboro Regency Hotel and Conference Center in Boxboro, MA.

The reliability-focused symposium will bring together electronics industry leaders to deliver presentations in the areas of their own expertise.

Tom Tattersall, Executive Vice President and COO at MicroCare, will be on hand to present Perfecting a Cleaning Process for Hi-Rel Electronics for Reliability in Electronics, illustrating how electronics cleaning can be an important tool for enhancing PCB performance and reliability.

“Cleaning electronics offers a simple economic trade-off. It adds some manufacturing costs but it can also speed throughput, minimize waste, reduce warranty expenses and extend product service lives,” Tattersall said.
