Plasmatreat’s REDOX-Tool: An Alternative Process to the Usage of Flux

Metals are an important part of electronics manufacturing. However, their surface oxidizes when exposed to air and humidity, preventing the formation of a perfect solder joint in the production process. Introducing Plasmatreat’s REDOX-Tool, a game-changing innovation that removes oxide layers in an inline process. It uses only a combination of nitrogen and hydrogen, eliminating the need for environmentally harmful formic or citric acids. The REDOX-Tool results in optimized surface adhesion and reliable adhesion in subsequent processes. This effectively reduces defects, delamination, and product failure, also providing complete process control and product traceability.
