Green Technology Showcase

Aimtron recognizes the importance of Green Energy as a growing segment of our Economy. Manufacturing for this industry, both domestic and offshore, has particulars which require an experienced staff. Aimtron’s expertise includes:

LED Lighting
We understand the particulars for successful LED lighting. Aimtron can process lead free with white mask without discoloration. Aluminum core boards are within our expertise as well. Strip-style lighting on flex circuit board can be successfully manufactured.

Power Conversion Products
Products such as grid ties, inverters, battery management, drive controls, and power modules are within our experience. Large copper ground planes and high thickness inner layers may be processed with ease. Mixtures of through-hole and surface mount components are processed between our surface mount, selective solder, and wave solder lines.

Building Automation
Devices such as motion-sensing energy savers, power distribution & control, energy meters, and gas detectors have all been produced by our staff.

Other Industrial
There is so much innovation in the green energy field, it is impossible to list all the possibility of devices. Wherever your imagination takes you, Aimtron can help you achieve the best possible pricing, highest quality, and fastest delivery.

RoHS and the Environment

Mindful of the environment an customer requirements, RoHS processing is easy and intuitive if you implement good training practices, and a visual work environment. Aimtron takes great strides to separate RoHS from non-RoHS by using designated tools, work spaces, and sound daily practices.

Heat:

RoHS assemblies require more heat than SnPB processes. Increased heat may also increase risk, as not every component can withstand high temperatures over a period of time.

Risk is mitigated by having sound thermal profiling, stencils, paste, and an experienced Engineer to put it all together.

Aimtron considers all these factors critical to success.

Environment:
Some examples of our intuitive work environment:

Solder Stencils: Green Mesh for RoHS, Silver for SnPB

Solder Paste Handling: Separate tools for RoHS / SnPB, Sound usage procedures.

Soldering Irons: Green Sleeve for RoHS, Blue for SnPB, Designated SnPB processing workstations

Selective Soldering: Changeable Solder Pots, Separate Nozzle Sets

Wave Soldering: RoHS only

Electro-Static Discharge.

All objects and materials hold an electric charge. When two objects come into proximity or contact, they exchange charge until they are both equal. Sometimes the charge exchange is so great, it can damage electronic components.

To prevent any harm, Aimtron is vigilant about its safe handling practices. Utilizing training, equipment, and visual markings around the workplace, we help ensure the long-term success of customer’s assemblies by safe handling up front.

Aimtron’s efforts have been recognized by the Electro Static Discharge Association (ESDA). Certified to ESDA S.20:20:2007, Aimtron is among an exclusive list of about 150 companies world-wide who currently hold this title.

It is true that many companies have their own safe handling practices, but how many are recognized among global leaders?

Certified by Underwriters Laboratories, Aimtron successfully passed Stage 1 and Stage 2 audit the first time.

This is the level of attention we bring to your requirements.
