AirBorn Electronics Invests in ACE Selective Soldering Equipment
June 17, 2016 | ACE Production Technologies Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
ACE Production Technologies, Inc. is pleased to announce that AirBorn Electronics has invested in a KISS-103IL in-line selective soldering system.
The KISS-103IL selective soldering system has been installed at the AirBorn Electronics facility located in Akron, Ohio and is the second selective soldering machine AirBorn Electronics has ordered from ACE Production Technologies.
“The KISS-103IL is a fully-configured SMEMA compatible selective soldering platform equipped with “Super Quick” processing speeds and the unique dual solder nozzle systems enabling the use of multiple nozzle shapes within the same program,” said Alan Cable President of ACE Production Technologies. “The KISS-103IL comes standard with the ACE automated fiducial location and correction system that offers seamless fiducial recognition and true automated X-Y alignment and corrects any skew of the printed circuit board.”
Cable added, “Other innovative features include the new SWAK-OS machine operating software which is a revolutionary graphics-based programming and editing machine control system that features fast program loading and program recall with minimal operator intervention. A major benefit of the SWAK-OS is the integrated board scanning function that automatically captures and saves an image of a printed circuit board to the selective soldering program.”
AirBorn Electronics, Inc. is a full service electronic contract manufacturer serving a diverse group of customers including manufacturers of medical instrumentation, military electronics, semiconductor instruments, industrial controls and commercial products. Products range from individual printed circuit boards to completely assembled and tested systems. Their services include full SMT and mixed technology assemblies, electromechanical and chassis integration, prototype and pre-production runs, and specialized rework and wiring systems.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Gold Mitigation for Class 2 Electronics
05/07/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileIn electronic assemblies, the integrity of connections between components is paramount for ensuring reliability and performance. Gold embrittlement and dissolution are two critical phenomena that can compromise this integrity. Gold embrittlement occurs when gold diffuses into solder joints or alloys, resulting in mechanical brittleness and an increased susceptibility to cracking. Conversely, gold dissolution involves the melting away of gold into solder or metal matrices, potentially altering the electrical and mechanical properties of the joint.
