🔬 Case Study: Eliminating Graping & Reducing Rework with AIM Technical Support

High-mass assemblies and small components like 0201 capacitors often present significant reflow challenges. For one EMS provider, "graping" and non-coalescence issues meant nearly every board required manual touch-up and rework.

The solution wasn't just a product, it was the combination of AIM’s W20 Water Soluble Solder Paste and our dedicated technical support.

By partnering with AIM, the manufacturer achieved:

✔️Expert Process Optimization: AIM technical support helped optimize the reflow profile to be faster, shorter, and cooler than the previous setup.

✔️Problem Solved: The persistent graping on 0201 components was completely resolved.

✔️Efficiency Gained: Quality inspectors described the new results as "tremendously better," eliminating the need for excessive rework.

💡The AIM Advantage: We don't just ship solder; we provide the local, expert technical support needed to troubleshoot and optimize your most challenging SMT processes.Whether you are managing complex assemblies or standard production lines, our global experts are ready to ensure your results excel.

❌Stop Using IPA to Clean Your Stencils

IPA can cause solder paste to smear, spread into apertures, and degrade stencil release. It may appear to clean well, but it actually leads to inconsistent deposits, bridging, and increased print defects, especially with fine-pitch components.

✔️Do this instead:
• Use stencil cleaning solvents specifically designed and tested for solder paste removal
• Choose chemistry that matches your paste formulation for optimal compatibility
• Follow AIM’s recommended cleaning intervals and wipe types

Better cleaning chemistry = better print performance and yield.

Recap: Solder Insights in Pennsylvania 📢
A big thank you to everyone who joined us at the Pennsylvania Alliance Event! It was a great day of networking and technical exchange at Imprint Beer Co.

Special thanks to our Sales Manager, Lauren Porto, for her featured presentation on "Solder Powder Size and its Effect on Stencil Printing and Reflow." As components shrink, her insights on powder selection are more critical than ever for maximizing first-pass yields.

It was a pleasure discussing how AIM’s paste, wire, and bar solutions can support your manufacturing goals. Missed the event? Let’s connect and keep the conversation going! https://www.aimsolder.com/contact/

Efficient wave soldering isn't just about the right alloy—it's about managing what’s left behind

Solder dross is an inevitable byproduct of the process, but left unmanaged, it becomes a significant drain on both quality and your bottom line. Our latest technical paper breaks down the mechanics of dross formation and how to keep your process lean.

Key takeaways:
🔹 The Anatomy of Dross: Understanding how oxidation occurs when molten solder meets air and agitation.
🔹 The Quality Cost: How excessive dross leads to bridging, shorts, and compromised joint integrity.
🔹 Control Strategies: From equipment optimization to the role of additives like phosphorous in reducing waste.
🔹 Economic Impact: Why managing dross is one of the most effective ways to reduce "non-value-added" costs in your assembly line.Stop letting your solder budget float away as oxide.
