BTU International and Partners Present Assembly Process Workshop
NORTH BILLERICA, Mass., September 16, 2013— BTU International, Inc. today announced that it will present a workshop in conjunction with Koh Young Technology, Juki Corporation and Speedline Technologies. The free workshop will be hosted by ACI Technologies and will take place October 2-3, 2013, in Philadelphia, PA.
The workshop will address the importance of solder paste inspection (SPI) for reliability, advances in accuracy and speed in pick-and-place machines, including package on package (PoP), mastering proper soldering techniques with reflow ovens, and precision stencil printing.
Mastering solder paste reflow profiles is usually the last step to locking down the SMT assembly. Fred Dimock from BTU will discuss the development of reflow profiles for PCB solder reflow, semiconductor packaging, and lead-free processes.
