Kyzen is pleased to announce that Dr. Mike Bixenman will present at Emerging Electronics 2014, scheduled to take place June 24-25, 2014 at SMS Electronics’ Beeston Head Office in Nottingham. Emerging Electronics 2014 is an invitation-only event that will showcase the UK’s leading engineering and manufacturing firms. Dr. Bixenman will present “Best Practices for Cleaning Printed Circuit Assemblies.”
The workshop-based conference will give electronic companies the opportunity to network with peers from the industry, meet leading suppliers and discover advances in technology launching over the coming years.
Electronic assembly innovations drive more performance using highly dense interconnects. Assembly residues may increase the risk of premature failure or improper functionality. One of the challenges when implementing a production cleaning process is the high level of factors that can change process variability. The presentation will focus on best practices when engineering and optimizing the printed circuit board (PCB) cleaning process.
Dr. Mike Bixenman, CTO of Kyzen, has 20 years of experience in the design of electronic assembly cleaning materials and process integration. He was the chair of the 2008 IPC/SMTA Cleaning Symposium and is the current chair of the IPC Cleaning Handbook Task Group. Dr. Bixenman holds four earned degrees including a Doctorate in Business Administration.
