Assembling with a stencil is just that much more convenient – it’s a huge timesaver, and your components no longer need to be individually touched with a soldering iron for as many times as they have ...

This paper will address the optimization of Pb Free soldering conditions, with a focus on differences between Sn/ Pb and Pb Free soldering. This allows assemblers to build on their extensive ...

Surface mount components have been a game changer for the electronics hobbyist, but doing reflow soldering right requires some way to evenly heat the board. You might need to buy a commercial reflow ...

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 ...

This video describes Digicom’s solder reflow services. The advanced high-throughput convection reflow oven from Digicom produces customized time-temperature profiles for each board. A gold super-mold ...

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 ...

Electronic enthusiasts searching for a new compact open source Smart PCB reflow machine may be interested in a new device created by the team at MagicBox, called the REFLO Air. Watch the demonstration ...

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 ...
