Electronics manufacturers face more challenges than ever if they want to succeed in a highly competitive environment. On the one hand, the requirement for consistently high quality of the manufactured products dominates, which often requires a certain degree of flexibility in the manufacturing processes. On the other hand, there is price pressure and the overall goal of making manufacturing processes more sustainable in order to be well positioned for the future. The focus is on minimizing material waste, the economical and ecological use of resources and avoiding potential soldering errors.
Machine manufacturers can provide effective support in the transformation to sustainable electronics production. More energy-efficient and resource-saving systems, increasing the flexibility of production equipment in order to be able to react economically to production fluctuations, higher levels of automation in process control in order to avoid possible soldering errors and of course the optimization of the overall cost structure are some of the starting points. Often, it’s the little things that make a difference.
With the right strategy, costs in the wave soldering process can be optimized and the ecological footprint minimized.
