Indium Corporation’s Senior Technical Support Engineer Mario Scalzo and Technical Support Engineer Ed Briggs had their papers accepted for presentation at the IPC/JEDEC Conference, Transitioning to Lead Free – Strategies for Implementation, in Santa Clara, California, March 3-5, 2009. Both Mario and Ed are based at Indium’s global headquarters in Clinton, NY.
Mario’s paper, Addressing the Challenge of Head-in-Pillow Defects in Electronics Assembly, discusses the two main sources of head-in-pillow defects and solutions for their elimination. Ed’s paper, Optimizing Reflow Profiling Lead-Free SMT Assembly, covers best practices for optimizing the reflow process and trouble shooting of the most common defects. Mario will travel to Santa Clara to present both papers on March 4, 2009.
Sponsored by IPC and JEDEC, this conference contains a full-day technical session plus workshops for those interested in meeting the industry challenge of RoHS compliance and successfully implementing lead-free electronics assembly processes.
