May 31, 2023 | Hentec Industries/RPS AutomationEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Hentec Industries/RPS Automation, a leading manufacturer of selective soldering, lead tinning and solderability test equipment, is pleased to announce that a major aerospace contractor has purchased Pulsar solderability testing and Photon steam aging systems for installation in their missile sector manufacturing facility. The Pulsar utilizes the highly proven dip-and-look test method that is a qualitative type test performed by comparative analysis. The Pulsar solderability test system complies with all applicable solderability test standards including MIL-STD-883 Method 2003, IPC J-STD-002 and MIL-STD-202 Method 208.
The Photon steam aging system is used for accelerated life testing to simulate elongated storage conditions for high-reliability applications. These steam aging systems complement component lead tinning machines designed to perform component re-tinning, tin whisker mitigation, gold removal and BGA de-balling for high reliability military and aerospace applications.
