Flux-coated solder preforms aid consistency
Indium Corp offers flux-coated solder preforms to support the optimisation of electronic assembly processes
Flux-coated solder preforms offer several advantages over plain solder preforms. Using the pre-applied, fused flux, these preforms eliminate the need to add flux as an additional process step. The flux-coating process fuses precise and accurate amounts of flux onto each solder preforms, delivering just the right amount to the solder joint.

By eliminating process steps, and by improving the consistency and accuracy of the flux quantity, flux-coated solder preforms reduce variables in a production process.
And by reducing the assembly process cycle time, improving the flux volume accuracy, reducing process variables, flux-coated solder preforms improve overall process quality and yield rates.
According to Indium's Director of Fabricated Solder Products, Ross Berntson: "Flux-coated solder preforms offer numerous contributions to the quality and yield rate of an electronic assembly line.
This delivers true bottom-line results in overall profitability and customer satisfaction to our customers".
Flux coatings are available in no-clean formulations, and the solder preforms are produced in a large range of sizes and shapes, to precisely suit each requirement.
