NORTH BILLERICA, MA — BTU Inter - national is introducing its award-winning Aurora reflow oven platform. Aurora is guiding the way to the lights


out Industry 4.0 factory of the future by see- ing reflow in a new light. Using the combina- tion of newly integrated process control tech- nologies and innovative WinCon 8 software updates, Aurora consistently provides overall thermal process performance. Implementing the industry’s first factory


configurable heating and cooling zones pro- vides the flexibility to customize your reflow oven for specific product/process characteris- tics including very heavy boards, slow cooling constraints, or increased throughput require- ments. The Aurora platform is currently avail- able in two powerful options, the Aurora 150N and Aurora 200N. The new Aurora 200N is the


longest and most advanced reflow oven ever produced by BTU. This groundbreaking addi- tion to the Aurora platform sets


Treatment DALLAS, TX — StenTech® Inc., is introducing its new BluPrint™ chemical vapor deposited (CVD) surface treatment at IPC APEX 2024. This technology, designed to enhance SMT processes with unparalleled benefits for stencil performance,


longevity, and


overall assembly quality, will be showcased for the first time. The relentless drive to


shrink components and circuit boards poses challenges in solder paste printing with laser-cut stainless-steel stencils. BluPrint CVD introduces a


revolutionary method of deposit- ing thin films onto a substrate by introducing chemical precursors into a reactor chamber, resulting in a solid material deposit on the surface. The process begins with plasma polishing, followed by the chemical vapor deposition, result- ing in a smoother sidewall and enhanced corrosion resistance. The consistency achieved


across all areas distinguishes StenTech’s CVD from traditional liquid spray processes, providing a resilient, virtually indestructible coating that ensures uniform printing with identical apertures. Beyond consistent thick-


ness, BluPrint offers exceptional thermal stability, chemical inert- ness, anti-stiction properties, a refined smooth surface finish, customizable


characteristics, and unmatched print quality


consistency. Contact: StenTech, 8350 N

a new standard for performance, flexibility and innovation. Alongside the Aurora 150N, BTU


International will also feature the PYRA- MAX 125 Air model. Manufactured with pre- cision in Mexico, the PYRAMAX 125A exem-


plifies newly implemented onshoring initia- tives. This approach is designed to mitigate supply chain risks by leveraging pre-estab- lished facilities with skilled labor. The process maintains stringent quality


control standards to meet customer require- ments, all while reducing shipping costs and lead times. The PYRAMAX 125 Air incorpo- rates advanced features such as closed-loop convection control and the Wincon 8 oven con- trol system, ensuring superior performance


and reliability within a compact footprint. Contact: BTU International, Inc., 23
