Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

KYZEN’s Adam Klett to Present at 2025 SMTA Electronics in Harsh Environments Conference
May 5, 2025 | KYZEN'Estimated reading time: 1 minute

KYZEN, the global leader in innovative environmentally responsible cleaning chemistries, announced today that Director of Science Adam Klett, PhD will present during the technical conference at the 2025 SMTA Electronics in Harsh Environments Conference. The event is scheduled to take place May 20-22, 2025 at the DoubleTree Amsterdam Central Station.
Klett, who also serves on the conference’s technical committee, will present “Impact of Testing Delays on Contamination Detection in Electronic Assembly Cleaning,” on Monday, May 20 at 4 PM.
The presentation covers a study investigating the effect of time elapsed between manufacturing and testing on contamination detection and reproducibility of results. The goal of the study was to determine whether the delay compromises the reliability of conclusions about cleaning effectiveness.
As presented by Klett, the results of the study provide quantitative insights into the effect of time on the detectability of contamination and the reproducibility of SIR test results. The findings of the study thereby enable manufacturers to better understand how scheduling delays may influence test outcomes.
The SMTA Electronics in Harsh Environments Conference, hosted by SMTA Europe, addresses a wide variety challenges and best practices for designing and manufacturing electronics devices to perform reliably when used in harsh environments. The 2025 conference features three days of technical programming including a keynote presentation each day.
