Flux for electronics production
To be an innovative leader in fluxes, you need to have excellent knowledge of the markets. This is the only way a company can develop innovative solutions for existing customer challenges. This applies not only to specialty products, but also to products in different application areas, such as Emil Otto's fluxes. Some of these can be used in electronics production, metal processing and the solar industry.
Flux - the key to precise soldering and long-lasting connections
In modern electronics production and cable assembly, fluxes play a decisive role in soldering and in the production of electrical connections. Fluxes not only ensure optimum adhesion of solder metals. When used in the electronics industry, these chemical products also prevent and remove oxidation from component surfaces during the soldering process. Fluxes also improve heat transfer. These properties are particularly important in order to produce reliable and durable connections that meet the requirements of demanding applications.
Flux applications promote the flowability of the solder during soldering and ensure even and precise distribution. There are different types of fluxes for soldering, including water-based, alcohol-based and hybrid Fluxes that are used depending on the application and soldering process.
Fluxes are crucial factors in ensuring soldered connections with high electrical conductivity and mechanical strength. If the correct flux is not used, this can result in an unstable connection, which in turn can lead to failures or malfunctions of electronic assemblies.
Fluxes offer the following advantages within the soldering process
Fluxes ensure a clean and secure connection, which extends the service life of electronic components.
Pre-treatment of the component surfaces with flux significantly reduces the likelihood of soldering defects.
Soldering errors can be expensive. The use of fluxes reduces the error rate and thus cuts production costs.
Fluxes are indispensable for modern electronics production. They improve soldering quality, increase the reliability of connections and contribute to the efficiency of the production process. At Emil Otto you will find a wide range of high-quality fluxes. The different products are tailored to the complex needs of the industry.
