Dymax Mexico to Showcase Light-Curing Technologies at SMTA Guadalajara Expo & Tech Forum 2025
September 4, 2025 | DymaxEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Dymax, a global manufacturer of rapid light-curing materials and equipment, will participate in SMTA Guadalajara Expo & Tech Forum, taking place September 17-18, 2025, at the Guadalajara Expo Center in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. Visitors can find Dymax at Booth 430 to learn more about its light-curing solutions for the electronics manufacturing industry.
At the event, Dymax Mexico will highlight its light-curable materials, including conformal coatings for PCB and board-level protection, encapsulants and staking materials for component reinforcement, temporary protective maskants for efficient finishing processes, and form-in-place gaskets designed for complex configurations.
In addition, the company will demonstrate a selection of its light-curing equipment including the BlueWave® QX4 LED Spot-Curing System that offers four wavelength options (366, 385, and 405 nm) and delivers up to 38 W/cm2 of intensity at 385 nm. The BlueWave® V3.1 broad-spectrum system provides consistent, repeatable cures across UVA and UVB wavelengths, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
With a newly established distribution center and laboratory testing facility in Querétaro, Dymax is strengthening its direct presence in Mexico to better serve local manufacturers. The new operations enable faster delivery, local product testing, and closer collaboration with customers throughout the region.
“Our expanded presence in Mexico allows us to support customers with faster access to materials and local technical expertise, helping them solve complex manufacturing challenges more efficiently,” said Raul Garcia, Territory Manager Central Mexico.

Nolan’s Notes: Is Mexico the Pulse of Electronics in the Americas?
11/04/2025 | Nolan Johnson -- Column: Nolan's NotesLast year, I attended SMTA Guadalajara, where I saw the results of the Mexican investment in electronics manufacturing. The U.S. was still operating under the Biden administration, and while Mexican EMS companies had expanded capacity to support EV manufacturing, the demand dropped significantly. In my conversations at the show, the sentiment was one of patience. They knew the EV business would likely come back. However, they didn’t expect an overhaul of U.S. trade agreements and tariffs that would shift a more diversified portfolio in Mexico’s direction.
