KIC, a renowned pioneer in thermal process and temperature measurement solutions for electronics manufacturing, is excited to announce its participation in the 2024 IPC APEX EXPO, scheduled to take ...

Littelfuse announced the expansion of its K5V Series illuminated Tactile Switch family with the release of new K5V4 models.

The overall concept of reflow soldering is simple: put a pre-assembled board with some solder paste into an oven and bake it until the solder properly melts. When a board is reflowed, it typically is ...

Discrete electronic components such as resistors, capacitors and even larger IC's are shrinking down smaller every year, and that makes it harder for the average home maker or hobbyist to create their ...

FCI extends its reflow process-compatible D-Sub family of connectors by introducing a new right-angle version for Pin-In-Paste (through-hole) technology. This product line extension will allow ...

Solderstar will exhibit its Reflow Shuttle O₂, designed for nitrogen-assisted reflow soldering processes innovations at SMTA.

Dr. Martin K. Anselm (Director of the Center for Electronics Manufacturing, RIT). Dr. Anselm holds an undergraduate degree in Physics, a Masters in Mechanical Engineering and a Ph.D. in Materials ...

One high-volume OEM proves that even simple feedback from an AOI system can reduce end-of-line defects by an order of magnitude. Until recently, the use of pre-reflow optical inspection usually was ...

This paper describes the losses from defects at the placement process in the SMT line. Two case studies of European and Taiwanese SMT manufacturers illustrate the actual losses from their defects. An ...
