IDENTCO Receives Mexico Technology Award for Auto Apply Solutions
October 25, 2019 | IDENTCOEstimated reading time: 1 minute
IDENTCO announces that it was awarded a 2019 Mexico Technology Award in the category of Labeling for its Auto Apply Solutions. The award was presented to the company during a Wednesday, October 23, 2019 ceremony that took place during the SMTA Guadalajara Expo & Tech Forum.
IDENTCO’s labeling and high-temperature masking system enables customers with SMT lines to print-on-demand miniature tracking labels and automatically apply those labels to their printed circuit boards and components using existing pick-and-place assets. A pre-printed label option also is available through IDENTCO’s print service bureaus in Germany, Chicago and Monterrey (MX). Additionally, the system can be used to automatically place high-temperature die-cut polyimide masks for selective solder masking.
IDENTCO offers the thinnest pick-and-place label presenter in the industry that is compatible with all major pick-and-place machines. High-performance labels and matching ribbons withstand the extreme temperatures and solvents used in the manufacture of surface-mount and through-hole printed circuit boards, providing traceability throughout the entire assembly process. Labels also are available with electro-static dissipative (ESD) properties to meet the requirements of ANSI/ESD S20.20.
The Mexico Technology Awards acknowledge the latest innovations available in Mexico produced by OEM manufacturing equipment and materials suppliers over the last 12 months.

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.
