Current IssueVoices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

ITW EAE Releases Deep Wave Option for Electrovert Wave Soldering Machines
August 6, 2024 | ITW EAEEstimated reading time: 1 minute
ITW EAE has released a new innovative option for the Electrovert Wave Soldering machines that provides the ability to pump up to a 20 mm wave height.
The new Deep Wave option offered by Electrovert overcomes the challenges associated with deep pockets and masking and provides a wave depth necessary to achieve topside hole fill. In some applications the 20 mm capability has removed the need for an additional soldering process with a selective solder machine.
The Deep Wave option is a recipe-controlled parameter in the machine software that can make changes between different wave heights within 10 seconds. The Deep Wave option complements other Electrovert value added options including ExactaWave (automatic wave height adjustment), adjustable wave pump RPM’s settings, forced convection blower speed adjustments and precision selective fluxing that can all be adjusted on-the-fly. This high level of control and rapid change with the wave soldering process provides the greatest flexibility for a lot-size-of-one capability in high-mix soldering applications. The Deep Wave option along with other critical machine parameters, are data logged in the machine software and captured for MES information management applications.
We are excited about this newly released option,” said Greg Calvo, ITW EAE Wave Soldering Business Manager. “Electrovert’s Deep Wave solution to increasing wave height for increased capability provides many benefits to manufacturers that value production line throughput, maximum soldering performance quality, and flexibility in demanding production environments.”
The Deep Wave option is available with the UltraFill 4.0 and DwellMax 4.0 wave nozzle configurations and Auto-Exit Wing option. The Deep Wave option is offered in combination with Electrovert’s Short and Full Nitrogen tunnel options.
