Current IssueSoldering Technologies
Soldering is the heartbeat of assembly, and new developments are taking place to match the rest of the innovation in electronics. There are tried-and-true technologies for soldering. But new challenges in packaging, materials, and sustainability may be putting this key step in flux.
The 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?

ACE and Premtronic partner for Nepcon Thailand exhibition in Bangkok
June 3, 2016 | ACE Production Technologies Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
ACE Production Technologies, Inc., a leading supplier of selective soldering systems, is pleased to announce that ACE and Premtronic will partner to jointly exhibit at the Nepcon Thailand 2016 exhibition, scheduled to take place June 22 to June 25, 2016 in Bangkok, Thailand.
Mr. Mark Dagelinckx, Asia Sales and Service Manager of ACE Production Technologies, will discuss “Solderability and Lead Tinning for the 21st Century” addressing the development and implementation of a molten solder component lead tinning process for various applications such as improving solderability, eliminating gold embrittlement and mitigating tin whiskers.
ACE will be exhibiting its newly redesigned KISS-103IL in-line selective soldering system that comes standard with graphics-based programming, automated fiducial correction and board warp compensation. Also shown will be the capabilities of a LTS300 through-hole and SMT component lead tinning system featuring two dynamic nitrogen inerted solder pots, fluxing station and forced hot air preheating.
With sales offices in Penang and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Premtronic SDN BHD is a solutions provider company to the electronics industry fulfilling printed circuit board and semiconductor needs in terms of machine sourcing and process solutions as well as providing failure analysis and reliability testing services.
Featured products on exhibit will include: ACE Production Technologies: selective soldering and component lead tinning, ATCO SMT pick-and-place, BGA rework systems and reflow ovens, Aqueous Technologies PCB cleaning and cleanliness test systems, Chart Chambers HALT and HASS chambers, Focal Spot X-ray inspection systems, HKFT scanning acoustic microscopes, IKMT depaneling routers, SKYRAY Instruments ROHS Inspection, EDX and XRF, and Synapse Imaging solder paste inspection.

Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
12/13/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007This week, Peter Tranitz discusses the upcoming Pan-European Electronics Design Conference, set for Jan. 29-30 in Vienna, Austria. Pete Starkey brings us a review of the most recent EIPC Technical Snapshot webinar, which featured a global PCB maker update by Dr. Hayao Nakahara. Don't miss our interview with Manfred Huschka, who explains how companies can begin their own China Plus One plan. Stan Farnsworth breaks down photonic soldering and discusses its use in soldering materials that are not typically compatible. I also enjoyed Dan Beaulieu’s discussion on the value of consistency, and why just showing up for work is half the battle, especially in an inconsistent, evolving industry like ours.
Advancing Photonic Soldering
12/11/2024 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineStan Farnsworth, director of customer satisfaction at PulseForge, discusses the advancements in photonic soldering that highlight its energy efficiency and versatility. Over the past two years, the company has refined its applications for flexible substrates and energy reduction, finding that photonic soldering allows the processing of materials that typically aren’t thermally compatible and offers significant energy savings compared to traditional methods.
