Indium Corporation Technology Experts Presenting at NEPCON Shanghai

Two of Indium Corporation’s technology experts will present their technical findings at NEPCON China (Shanghai) in Shanghai, China, May 11-13, 2011. Aaron Yan, (严俊杰), Senior Technical Support Engineer, will be presenting Soldering Challenges in a Halogen-Free PCB Assembly Process (无卤PCB装配工艺中的焊接挑战). This paper discusses how to be successful in implementing halogen-free fluxes and solder pastes, as well as the techniques and practices that help ensure high end-of-line yields and continued reliability. Wisdom Qu, (瞿艳红), Assistant Technical Manager, will be presenting the paper Fine Feature Stencil Printing 0.3mm Pitch Components (0.3mm间距元件的钢网印刷特性). This paper explores evaluations done on the capability of the stencil printing process to obtain consistent solder paste print volumes when printing fine feature components. Both papers were originally presented at the 2009 SMTA International Conference on Soldering and Reliability in Toronto, Canada. Aaron Yan provides technical support for Indium’s electronics assembly materials, semiconductor and advanced assembly materials, and engineered solders and thermal management materials.
