White Paper

Making 3D printed PCB solder pallets a reality

Wave solder pallets and high temperature fixtures support the mass manufacturing process of printed circuit boards, resulting in tremendous cost benefits. They reduce setup time, improve solder flow, reduce bridging and solder skipping, eliminate labor intensive hand masking, reduce board warping and protect heat-sensitive components.

“The CBAM technology is a unique combination of cost efficiency and performance. We see long fibre reinforced composite parts being used to up-engineer from lower cost plastics, lightweight metal parts or create entirely new parts that aren’t otherwise possible.”

A World of Impossibilities

Tooling Flatness & Dimensional Accuracy

Flatness and dimensional accuracy are crucial for maintaining the alignment and integrity of the circuit board during assembly. Our CBAM process allows us to achieve results previously unheard-of using 3D printing. The final print results for the above pallet was +/-0.4mm dimensional accuracy, no tool warpage, and a flatness of +/- 12 mils.

Lighter Weight and Fast Cooling

Impossible Objects leverages lightweight materials to significantly reduce the overall weight of tooling. This enhancement not only simplifies operator handling but also minimizes the strain on conveyors and other expensive equipment on the manufacturing floor. Additionally, our advanced material sets cool exceptionally fast, leading to quicker turnaround times and reduced dwell periods, often necessitating far fewer pallets.

EMS Assembly and Production with CBAM Industrial 3D Printing

“We were able to highlight the issues in our production environment and IO provided solutions that immediately improved our efficiency and quality. We’ve been able to create cost-effective solutions that lead to record-breaking turnaround times on projects we’ve had for years.”
