Surface mount technology (SMT) specifications
Discover advanced surface mount technology at Calian
Calian provides a state-of-the-art surface mount technology (SMT) assembly line capable of laser marking of PWBs, automated solder paste inspection, 3D automated optical inspection (AOI) and off-line 3D x-ray inspection.
Comprehensive through-hole technology and conformal coating at Calian
Cutting-edge through-hole technology services
By combining the capabilities of programmable selective solder machines with the expertise of skilled assemblers, we achieve high-quality through-hole soldering with efficiency and great accuracy.
Automated selective soldering machines are used to precisely solder through-hole components onto the CCA’s, whether it is a legacy product or a new design. Some of the benefits of this method include a lower risk of damaging sensitive components and the ability to solder complex CCA assemblies with high precision.
Advancing conformal coating solutions
Calian is adept at safeguarding circuit card assemblies designed to operate in harsh environments or challenging conditions—protecting them from corrosion, chemicals, dust and debris.
Our fully programmable selective conformal coating and dispense system is designed for use with both solvent- or water-based coatings.
