Tetsuro Nishimura, president and CEO of Nihon Superior Co. Ltd, talked to I-Connect007's Stephen Las Marias about the soldering industry landscape and the company's latest innovations in soldering systems. Nihon Superior is celebrating its 50th anniversary next year.
Nishimura also discussed some of the major changes he witnessed over the past decades in the soldering industry, their Soft Solder technology, and why more and more manufacturers are now shifting to low-silver (Low-Ag) or no-silver (No-Ag) solders. He also talked about the challenges the electronics makers continue to face when it comes to lead-free solders, and how they are addressing these issues.
