The proliferation of electronics into harsh environments has however, highlighted the well-established link between process residues and electro-chemical migration (ECM) caused failures. Higher operational voltages, increased component densities, and assembly miniaturization, and increased reliability expectations increase the relationship between clean assemblies and long-term reliability.
IPC E-Textiles Europe 2020 | Virtual Summit is a technical education summit for innovators, technologists, materials suppliers and brands to learn about the latest innovations, designs and manufacturing concepts for e-textiles technologies being developed in Europe as well as to collaborate on solutions and identify partners. This summit will consist of four educational workshop sessions over two days. Each workshop will include tours and interviews with students from four university laboratories in Europe.
The 15th Electronic Circuits World Convention (ECWC15) is the most notable international PCB symposium held every three years in different cities around the world. ECWC provides a valuable platform to encourage learnings amongst peers and provide the latest on global PCB demand, PCB manufacturing processes as well as technologies to enable them to better cope with the changing market dynamics for trends such as 5G, autonomous driving, smart world and much more. It also aims to promote the domestic PCB industry and economic activities in every country and every region.
IPC APEX EXPO 2021 is the place to be – wherever you are.
Given continued restrictions in the state of California for large gatherings and events, the rise in COVID-19 infection rates and restricted company travel policies, IPC’s executive leadership and Board of Directors made the decision to cancel the APEX EXPO as an in-person event and move to a virtual event.
Although the setting will be unique, we are committed to providing you with the cutting-edge content you have come to expect from APEX EXPO. The event’s digital platform will allow you to easily navigate more than 100 technical conference sessions and application-focused professional development courses as well as view product demonstrations, schedule one-on-one meetings with exhibitors and experience other offerings within the online exhibition.
Over the past 19 years, the National Electrical Wire Processing Technology Expo has grown into a comprehensive industry resource! As the exclusive showcase for the electrical wire harness, wire and cable processing industries, the Expo connects buyers with local, national, and international manufacturers and distributors. It’s the only event where the industry meets as a whole to present and access new technologies, innovative products and services, as well as solutions for challenging wire problems. By bringing together buyers and manufacturers, this Expo presents the ideal venue to find new opportunities and generate new business.
Contribute to the industry standards and guidelines that your company, customers, suppliers and competitors rely on by attending IPC standards development meetings. Newcomers and industry veterans are welcome. Participate and learn more about these critical industry documents.
While COVID related issues caused the cancellation of the February annual meeting the WHMA BOD asked to bring the WHMA community together via webinar to have an opportunity to stay connected. To this end, WHMA/IPC has organized the presentations below to be held by Zoom conference on February 17, 2021.
What does supply chain resiliency really mean? What can you do in your business, regardless of size, to react and adapt to supply chain disruptions? Join us for an interactive discussion with Suzanne Richer of the Global Trade Academy as she helps us define what supply chain resiliency means, including understanding whether an impact can be delayed and if not, how quick a company can recover. Explore how to better gain control of your supply chain, in a climate that seems to have taken control out of our hands. Suzanne will share unique approaches to and lessons learned about data management, supplier cooperation, and the future of talent. Additionally, she will share how procurement is changing and will impact the electronics industry.
As the Smart replacement for the long-successful IPC-SMEMA standard, the IPC-HERMES standard directly addresses business-critical line automation needs, whilst retaining the freedom to select the ideal equipment from any chosen vendor. Hermes provides machine-to-machine (M2M) communication that allows machines to consistently transfer a physical PCB together with the PCB’s related Digital Twin. With an emphasis on flexibility to produce any quantity, of any product, at any time, Hermes features fully automated changeover and flow-control in adaptive multi / mixed production lines, without the need for specialist hardware or systems at each machine.
2020 was a catalyst for innovation – in both what and how we build. Teams had to find new ways to complete build failure analysis remotely to keep to schedules, refactor supply chains, and bake agility into their everyday processes. In this webinar, Anna-Katrina will discuss the learning's, experiences, and best practices that evolved from the disruptions of 2020.
