Per quanto riguarda la saldatura o la bagnatura (rivestimento) con l'indio, ci viene spesso chiesto di commentare la formazione di ossido di indio e come rimuoverlo. Ci viene anche chiesto quanto tempo ci vorrà prima che l'ossido

We are often asked if it is possible to solder to stainless steel and, if so, what is the best procedure.As you may already know, stainless steel is not easy to solder but it can be done with a

We are frequently asked if it is possible to solder to aluminum.The answer is yes, if the following guidelines are followed: FLUXES: Because it is difficult to solder to aluminum, Indium Corporation

Folks, Let’s see how Patty is doing with the latest crisis…… Upon hearing Claire Perkins inform her that Rob was in the hospital, Patty froze and her face looked ashen.She quickly

Two categories of solder are available to choose from when the in-service environment for a device reaches above 125°C either in continuous operation or thermal cycling accelerated life

Folks, Patty arrived at work an hour early to prepare for her meeting with ACME CEO Mike Madigan.Nineteen days ago, he had asked her to develop an electronics assembly metric that would correlate

Indium and indium-containing alloys see wide use in a multitude of soldering applications. Indium has many attractive properties such as remaining ductile at cryogenic temperatures, compatibility

It is often said that a chain is only as strong as it weakest link, the same can be true for a series of solder joints on a component. When one is bad, the rest are useless. Quite often, voiding is

L'indio metallico ha la capacità unica di saldarsi (incollarsi) a freddo a temperatura ambiente. Anche se tecnicamente non si tratta di una saldatura, questa proprietà lo rende particolarmente utile per l'incollaggio a bassa temperatura.

Tombstoning (also known as the Manhattan effect, drawbridge effect, or Stonehenge effect) is described (in the simplest, and most common, sense) as occurring when one end of a passive device, such as

Folks, Let's look in on Patty…… Patty was just finishing a report on work that she and Pete had performed with a team of her ACME colleagues on reducing the Head-in-Pillow (HIP)

Ecco un elenco di trucchi per aiutarvi a superare i problemi che possono sorgere durante la saldatura a mano di celle solari a base di silicio (e di altre applicazioni come

Folks, In addition to electronics assembly productivity, solder paste and solder preform applications, and other electronics assembly concerns, many of you know that I teach statistics and have been

Solder paste is comprised of powdered solder alloy suspended in a flux vehicle. There is a group of flux ingredients that is generically identified as

Following on from our discussions of last time… As you will recall from the previous post on this topic, My friend and colleague Chris Nash and I were discussing some puzzling results for low

Intermetallics are a necessary evil in the metal-to-metal bonding world, which definitely includes soldering. There are two basic ways that metal will "chemically"bond to another metal: 1)

My friend and colleague Chris Nash and I were recently discussing some puzzling results for low dip height found during testing of package-on-package (PoP) materials. The findings will be of interest

Chiunque abbia utilizzato la saldatura a onda per assemblare PCB conosce quello strato di metallo che si accumula sulla superficie liscia della saldatura fusa: si tratta di scorie di saldatura, composte da ossidati e da un'altra sostanza.

Folks, Rob heads to Guadalajara to solve the QFNvoiding problem…… As Rob sat on the airplane, he was excited to go to GDL (Guadalajara, Mexico) to help solve the voiding

Folks, Let's look in on Rob: Rob looked at the new photo of Patty and their twin sons Peter and Michael.What a handful those two 18 month-olds were.Just like their mother!Rob was still pinching

Solder powder particle size and shape impacts the functionality of solder paste in many ways: printing/dispensing/dipping; solderballing; graping; voiding; tack and so
