ASM’s SMT Solutions segment, the technology leader for machines and solutions for the electronic manufacturing industry, has won the 2018 Factory of the Year/Global Excellence in Operations (GEO) Award in the Excellent Production Network category. The benchmarking award, which has been sponsored since 1992 by Produktion magazine and consultancy A.T. Kearney, is one of the most coveted honors for manufacturing companies. After 2012 and 2016, this is the third time ASM has won the Factory of the Year award. This time, the panel of judges recognized especially the high level of common standards within ASM’s global production network with its plants in Munich, Weymouth, Singapore, and Malaysia. The awards will be officially presented during the Factory of the Year Congress, which will be held March 20-22 in Ludwigsburg, Germany.
As Eutect put the first force- and temperature-controlled thermode soldering module into operation at an international headlamp manufacturer in 2005, the measurement of the penetration of the thermode was used exclusively as process monitoring and -control. A lot has happened since then. In 2018, Eutect completed the next further development of the thermode soldering module, which thanks to freely definable parameters, offers new process opportunities.

Modern electronics are used nowadays in a range of industries, which expose them to a wide range of temperatures. Most notably, electronic assemblies in safety-related areas of application, such as medical technology, the automotive industry (autonomous driving) and aerospace technology, must function 100% reliably at all temperature conditions.
The vehicle airbag saves lives no matter what the conditions, the front lights ensure a safe journey day and night, the onboard computer and sensors in aircraft provide reliable measurements for flight guidance even at an altitude of 10,000 metres, and a simple traffic light system regulates traffic in any wind and weather. Behind each one of these functions are a myriad of highly complex electronic components and connections.
