Watch how double-sided PCBAs (printed circuit board assemblies) are made. Normally, the first side is completed using the surface mount technology (SMT) process including robotic pick-and-place and solder reflow. How we handle the second side depends on many factors,...
Watch this SMT assembly, flux and board washing video and learn about water-soluble flux vs. no-clean flux, and why you might want to wash boards even if you use no-clean flux. In this video we look at solder flux and board cleaning processes for SMT assembly. This is...
ESD protection in electronics manufacturing protects sensitive components from damage due to electrostatic discharge. Electronics manufacturers need to protect sensitive components from damage due to ESD, or electrostatic discharge. There are a lot of techniques to do...
Watch how Z-AXIS programs ICs for PCBAs. More videos on YouTube. Today’s printed circuit boards often include embedded software or firmware as part of the design. The code is stored in microcontrollers or flash memory chips. If you outsource printed circuit board...
This PCB assembly soldering video from Z-AXIS of Phelps, NY examines the importance of thermal profiling in soldering operations. Measuring the unique thermal profile for each printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) design during pre-production lets us create an optimal...
It’s the people we work with that make our days worthwhile. Happy Holidays from Z-AXIS! See more videos on YouTube.
