How to Choose the Right Lead-Free Solder for Your Application
While the transition from traditional tin-lead solder to lead-free alternatives is largely driven by regulations such as RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances), it also introduces a new set of considerations when selecting the right alloy for your process.
Flux Removers and Degreasers: Effective Solutions for Electronics and Industrial Use
Flux and grease residues can have detrimental effects on both electronic assemblies and industrial equipment. In electronics, flux residues left from soldering can cause corrosion, short circuits, and performance degradation. Meanwhile, industrial environments often face the challenge of heavy oils, grease, and grime accumulation that can compromise machinery efficiency.
How to Remove Solder From a Printed Circuit Board
Whether fixing a faulty connection, replacing a component, or salvaging parts from an old PCB (Printed Circuit Board), knowing how to remove solder properly can make the process smooth and efficient.
Choosing the Right Under Stencil Wiping Roll for Your SMT Process
As a distributor serving the electronics manufacturing industry, SMT Supplies understands that high-quality under-stencil wiping rolls are essential for achieving reliable solder paste printing in your SMT process. The right wiping roll can help reduce defects such as smearing, bridging, and solder balling, ensuring a cleaner and more efficient production line.
When to Use Low-Temperature Soldering
Low-temperature soldering has become an essential process in modern electronics manufacturing, offering unique advantages for specific applications. But when should you consider using low-temperature soldering over traditional soldering methods?

The Role of Fume Extraction Equipment in Wave Soldering
Wave soldering remains a cornerstone process in electronics manufacturing, enabling reliable solder joints for high-volume circuit board assembly. However, the process generates significant fumes containing harmful substances such as flux residues, particulate matter, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This is where fume extraction equipment becomes a game-changer, ensuring a safer working environment and better production outcomes.
