ULT AG to Exhibit at SMT 2016 Trade Show
February 11, 2016 | ULT AGEstimated reading time: 1 minute
At the trade show SMT Hybrid Packaging 2016 in Nuremberg/Germany, ULT AG will exhibit new and well-proven extraction and filtration systems as well as solutions for ionisation of surfaces and assemblies. Co-exhibitor at stand 210 in hall 6 will be the company’s long-term German distribution partner IVH Absaugtechnik.
Two different solutions will accentuate the topic of ionisation, i.e. removal of electrostatic charges on surfaces, assemblies and components. On the one hand, there is the mobile unit JUMBO Elephant for manual workplaces providing ionisation, compress air cleaning, extraction and filtration rolled into one. On the other hand, IVH presents the IAT1200, the worldwide first worktable with integrated ionisation and extraction, making a separate ESD grounding cable redundant. In interaction with a ULT extraction system LRA 400, the additional removal of vapours, odours and dust during part processing will be demonstrated on the table.
The LRA 160, a compact and mobile extraction and filtration unit, will be another new model. The system is suited for the safe and efficient removal of airborne pollutants that occur during soldering processes in electronics manufacturing.
Offering selective filtration and operating cost optimization, the LRA 160 is the latest device within ULT’s new generation of extraction and filtration systems.
The company’s extraction and filtration units remove hazardous substances, such as fine dust or aerosols that occur during laser and solder processes in electronics production. ULT AG develops low-noise air purification systems, which achieve optimum filter performance and a high degree of separation. This improvement results from the utilisation of highly efficient filtration media that comply with statutory limit values for hazardous substances.

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.
