AIM Intros New Solder Paste, Karl Seelig Delivers Paper


Cranston, RI —AIM is introducing its new NC259 Solder Paste chemistry — NC259 Solder Paste — which has been developed in response to many issues that manufacturers face every day. According to the company, it is


and VOC-free NC275LR are halide- free, no-clean liquid fluxes formulat- ed to offer a very wide process win- dow allowing for extremely good wet- ting, even to difficult-to-wet materi- als. NC265LR and NC275LR offer low post-process residues and have proven to reduce preventative main- tenance requirements for spray flux- ing applications. These fluxes are compatible with a broad range of lead-free and tin-lead solder alloys. The company is also highlight- ing its tin-lead and lead-free alloys,


including SN100C. SN100C is a lead- free solder alloy developed by Nihon Superior in Japan that is comprised of tin-copper-nickel + germanium. Karl Seelig, AIM’s Vice Pres -


ident of Technology, is scheduled to present his VOC-Free Flux Study during a technical session entitled “Flux”, on Wednesday, February 29, from 9-10 a.m. at the San Diego Convention Center. The presentation will explain several factors relating to the use of a VOC-free flux in the wave soldering process. These factors


include the effect of varying types of acids and the impact on Ion Chromatography (IC) test results and SIR test results, weak organic acids (WOA) solubility and its impact on the environment, and electrical


integrity of components. Contact: AIM, 25 Kenney Drive,

Lead-free solder paste.


the first low-cost, lead-free, halogen- free solder paste to offer the perform- ance of tin-lead and high-silver lead- free solder pastes. Now, manufactur- ers can attain the SMT soldering results they require and pay signifi- cantly less per gram than with tradi- tional lead-free solder pastes. In addi- tion, the ability of NC259 to eliminate head-in-pillow failures is critical when assembling boards with leadless devices like BGAs and QFNs. The alcohol-based NC265LR


Seika


Launches Sawa 20 pcs. Eco-Nozzle Cleaner


Torrance, CA — Seika Machinery, Inc. is introducing the SC-EN20E Sawa Eco-Nozzle Mounter Nozzle Cleaner, which cleans 20 nozzles at a time. With the system, ultrasonical- ly-vibrated water thoroughly passes through every nozzle opening.

”Green” cleaner for mounter nozzles.


Double-cleaning power is generated with ultrasonic-energy cleaning and simultaneous vacuum suction. Noz - zle tips and apertures can be cleaned without leaving any residue. The Sawa Eco-Nozzle is compat-


ible with Panasonic, YAMAHA and JUKI nozzles. A wide range of nozzle holders are available to accommodate


most mounter manufacturers. Contact: Seika Machinery, Inc.,
