MacDermid Alpha‘s Assembly Division to Present Void Reduction Solutions at the FED Conference
September 9, 2019 | MacDermid Alpha Electronics SolutionsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The Assembly division of MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions, a world leader in the production of electronics soldering and bonding materials, will present on the topic of Void Reduction at the FED Conference which runs from 26-27 September in Bremen, Germany.
Ralph Christ, customer technical support manager DACH Region for MacDermid Alpha will present "Voiding in Solder Joints: Identifying Causes and Potential Actions Against Void Formation" on Thursday 26 September, 15.30 at the event. "Voids are a major concern for electronic assembly manufacturers as voiding often compromises the reliability of an assembly," comments Ralph. "To combat voiding a combination of process expertise to understand critical process parameters, design factors and equipment information and innovative products such as solder paste, solder preforms and stencil design is needed."
ALPHA Void Reduction Solutions is a proven methodology to address all types of voiding issues in SMT assembly. Alpha experts analyze a customer’s process and develop an engineered recommendation addressing material sets, equipment settings and stencil design strategies to produce the desired voiding levels.
MacDermid Alpha Automotive will also present at the conference. Jan-Henryk Serzisko, strategic account director for MacDermid Alpha Automotive will present "Formable Electronics: Process Requirements and Materials for IMSE" on Friday 27 September at 15:00.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
