Indium Corporation Expert to Participate in SMTA Wisconsin SMT Printing Webinar
May 28, 2020 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Indium Corporation’s Adam Murling, Technical Support Engineer, will participate in an SMTA Wisconsin SMT Printing Roundtable Discussion webinar on Tuesday, June 2 at 3:30 p.m. CDT.
The webinar is designed to be an open discussion about SMT printing challenges in the industry and will start with a Printing 101—the basics of SMT printing. Topics covered will include insufficient solders, excessing solders, high tension stencils, nanocoating (life), paste size and pin-in-paste.
The webinar is free to SMTA members and is $25 for non-members. Reserve your attendance by Friday, May 29. The webinar link will be sent to those who pre-register for the event here. Attendees are encouraged to submit questions to pjwilson@ra.rockwell.com.

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.
