AIM Solder Brings New Low-Voiding, No Clean Solder Paste to Productronica
October 11, 2021 | AIM SolderEstimated reading time: 1 minute
AIM Solder, a leading global manufacturer of solder assembly materials for the electronics industry, is pleased to announce that they will feature their new low-voiding, no clean paste along with their full line of solder assembly materials at Productronica, scheduled to take place on November 16th-19th, 2021 at Messe München in Munich, Germany.
The company will launch its newly developed solder paste engineered to solve one of the industry’s most difficult challenges for BGA and BTC packages. AIM studies show that solder joint reliability and thermal dissipation concerns are significantly reduced with its new no clean paste. Be sure to follow AIM on social media for more news on this exciting new development.
AIM will also highlight its REL22™ and REL61™ alloys and NC273LT low temperature solder paste. When thermal exposure during the assembly process is a limitation, NC273LT is an excellent RoHS compliant replacement. AIM’s REL22 improves product survival in extreme thermal exposure operating environments such as under-hood automotive, avionics/aerospace and LED lighting. REL61 is ideally suited for industries which require a cost-effective alternative to SAC305 with no loss of processing performance or durability.
To discover all of AIM’s products and services, visit us at Productronica in Hall A4 Stand 420 for more information and to speak with one of AIM’s knowledgeable staff members.

Fresh PCB Concepts: Assembly Challenges with Micro Components and Standard Solder Mask Practices
06/26/2025 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsMicro components have redefined what is possible in PCB design. With package sizes like 01005 and 0201 becoming more common in high-density layouts, designers are now expected to pack more performance into smaller spaces than ever before. While these advancements support miniaturization and functionality, they introduce new assembly challenges, particularly with traditional solder mask and legend application processes.
Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.
