Indium to host reliability seminar
28 February 2022
Events
Indium Corporation continues to expand its acclaimed InSIDER series of webinars with a new discussion on defining ‘high reliability.’ Claire Hotvedt, product development specialist, will host the webinar on Tuesday, 29 March at 17:00 South African time.
The InSIDER Series – Indium Corporation’s free webinar programme designed for professional development – has included more than 30 topics presented to thousands of industry professionals via its live sessions and recordings archive.
The webinar addresses the question: How do we provide ‘high reliability’? As a diamond scratches steel but shatters when hit by a steel hammer, it’s about choosing the right product for the application. The industry is accustomed to choosing between fluxes to improve process reliability and prevent defects, and now that same challenge must be addressed with solder alloys. To accomplish this, Indium’s experts collaborate with customers and manufacturers to understand the temperature, and mechanical and process requirements to increase lifetime for the next generation of electronics.
Hotvedt is a product development specialist for the PCB Assembly business unit based at Indium’s global headquarters. She is responsible for facilitating the transition of new solder paste products from developmental stages into fully launched and marketable solutions. She also oversees product characterisation and creation of marketing material to assist the sales team.
Prior to joining Indium Corporation in 2018, Hotvedt held engineering positions at Orthogonal and Bristol-Myers Squibb. She earned her bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering, with a minor in Mandarin Chinese, from the University of Rochester. has included more than 30 topics presented to thousands of industry professionals via its live sessions and recordings archive.
