Current IssueThe Rise of Data
Analytics is a given in this industry, but the threshold is changing. If you think you're too small to invest in analytics, you may need to reconsider. So how do you do analytics better? What are the new tools, and how do you get started?
Counterfeit Concerns
The distribution of counterfeit parts has become much more sophisticated in the past decade, and there's no reason to believe that trend is going to be stopping any time soon. What might crop up in the near future?
Solder Printing
In this issue, we turn a discerning eye to solder paste printing. As apertures shrink, and the requirement for multiple thicknesses of paste on the same board becomes more commonplace, consistently and accurately applying paste becomes ever more challenging.

SolderStar Joins Industry Experts at Seminar to Address Profiling Techniques
November 30, 2015 | SolderStarEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
SolderStar joined industry experts from the electronics manufacturing sector to address the issues surrounding thermal profiling for today’s highly complex assemblies and discuss the way this impacts the manner in which the industry measures component temperatures accurately.
The one-day event held at The Manufacturing Technology Centre in Coventry, UK gave attendees the opportunity to learn new methods and understand issues surrounding profiling techniques, including attachment method best practice, process setup and profile optimisation scenarios for lower energy use or higher throughputs.
SolderStar a leading specialist manufacturer in the design and development of thermal profiling equipment for the lead-free electronics industry, concentrated their thoughts on the reflow process control, the need for the practice, and how modern technologies and processes lead to 100% traceability.
Keith Blakeley, SolderStar Product Manager said: “The seminar was a great opportunity to meet the engineers who work in the electronics manufacturing and design sector.
“We concentrated our presentation on why we need to actively control processes used in manufacturing and the factors driving this need. Producing electronic assemblies without a known thermal profile is detrimental. Without an established oven profile, problems can occur with soldering quality, cleaning issues or further down the line involving either rework costs or early component failures, a major cost in today’s increased manufacture of micro-assemblies. A poor thermal profile can be one of the main factors contributing to manufacturing defects within reflow soldering.
