The work of the SSTC is of prime importance to manufacturers of boards and components and producers of circuit assemblies who are concerned with enhancing the quality of their products. The SSTC has considerable expertise in solderability measurement and offers a training workshop and test work service on solderability. The SSTC has experience in circuit clean lines and reliability testing.
Current research includes the stencil printing process and solder paste handling issues.
The SSTC will develop and underpin developments in the field and provide a forum for discussing the latest technology challenges. Members will receive progress reports of NPL work. A discount to other NPL meetings in this area is also offered.
