ALPHA Products to be Showcased by ERMEG at the Amper Show in the Czech Republic
February 29, 2016 | Alpha Assembly SolutionsEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Alpha Assembly Solutions, the world leader in the production of electronic soldering materials, will have its latest innovative products showcased by its Premium Distributor for the Czech and Slovak Republics, ERMEG Ltd, at the Amper show in Brno, Czech Republic on the 15th- 18th March 2016.
Alpha’s extensive range of electronics assembly solutions will be presented at the show including ALPHA SNCX Plus 07 no-silver, lead-free solder alloy. The product has been engineered to minimize copper dissolution as compared to silver-bearing alloys and improve total cost of ownership. SNCX Plus™ 07 solder alloy provides excellent production yields, superb solder ability due to the fast wetting speed and low dross generation. It can be used for across a wide range of soldering processes.
Furthermore Alpha will presents its latest cored wire and solder paste products including Telecore HF-850 cored solder wire and OM-535 solder paste. ALPHA Telecore HF-850 is the fastest wetting and lowest spattering, Halogen and Halide Free cored wire from Alpha’s cored wire range. Telecore HF-850 provides excellent first pass solder joints and is suitable for use in any electronic or industrial no-clean soldering application.
ALPHA OM-535 is a low temperature solder paste designed to enable a single reflow application for assembly of double sided boards. OM-535 version with SBX02 alloy has a melting point of below 140°C and provides excellent mechanical strength and drop shock resistance. The product enables the elimination of an extra wave or selective wave soldering process when temperature sensitive through-hole components are used, this can significantly lower the total cost of ownership.
Alpha Assembly Solutions have enjoyed a long partnership, with ERMEG Ltd distributing Alpha products across the Czech and Slovak Republics. In 2015, ERMEG Ltd became part of Alpha’s exclusive Premium Distributor Council.
