  • Sick of trying to find “off the shelf” solder spheres to fit your application?  We make microspheres on a per-order basis to your specifications.  If you have had trouble getting exactly the size, tolerance, or alloy for your MEMS application, please talk to one of our tech guys (www.askus@indium.com) so we can get you the perfect spheres for your application.

     

     

     

     

     

    Common features/criteria for MEMS microspheres are:

     

     

              Diameter of 300micron and below

     

     

              Consistently shiny spheres

     

     

              Wide range of alloys

     

     

              High purity alloy (>99.95%)

     

     

              Precise size (+/-25, 10 or 5microns)

     

     

              Non-clumping

     

     

              Non-darkening

     

     

              Argon-purged packaging
