Saturn Electronics Corporation to attend SMTA International
Two-day Exhibition to Feature Much-Anticipated Tutorials and Technical Sessions

Romulus, MI--Saturn Electronics Corporation recently announced it will be attending the 2008 SMTAI Conference and Show to be held at the Disney's Coronado Springs Resort and Convention Center Orlando, FL, from August 17-21, 2008.

With over 20 years dedicated to developing solutions, the SMTA is an international network of professionals who build skills, share practical experience and develop solutions in electronic assembly technologies that include Microsystems, emerging technologies, and related business operations.

The SMTAI will proceed with the notably distinguished conferences Saturn has come to expect from conductively presenting at the organization’s past events. Emanating from its accomplished past, the 2008 SMTAI will once again be focusing exclusively on the electronics assembly industry.

This year’s expanded floor space equipment from today’s leading suppliers, but materials and services as well.

The four-day Technical Conference will feature 24 courses, 100 technical papers, and four focused symposiums.

In booth # 205, Saturn Electronics Corporation will feature supplementary information pertaining to their recent Lead Free Cost Reduction webinar that addressed the indirect cost drivers associated with the move to Lead Free. Promising that the right recipe could reduce cost by as much as 30%, the presentation instructed attendees on how to use the right combination of materials, finishes, and solders resulting in a pronounced ramification on bare board cost and reliability.

By implementing one or both solutions, attendees learned how to save up to 30% of bare board cost; increase product performance; standardize fab notes to remove risk of non-performing products, and improve the flux of their supply base.

The SMTAI’s astute commitment to innovation appeals to the sagacious nature of the Romulus-based PCB fabricator and their mutual obligation to share the latest information with the entire Supply Chain. With over 24 courses, 100 technical papers, four focused symposiums, and panel discussions heavily geared towards Lead Free knowledge, the world-class conference will refurbish industry criteria and educate attendees on pertinent information that can be implemented immediately.

Additionally, the Technical Conference offers attendees the opportunity to network with Industry experts on hand for the summit to succinctly address relevant issues and isolated concerns.

The two-day exhibition will feature more than 130 Companies.

Special features include highly-anticipated presentation of the Global Technology Awards 2008 In addition, attendees will be provided with Real Time Chat Rooms and a Nintendo Wii Lounge on the show floor.

Last year’s SMTA attracted over 1800 attendees and 145 exhibiting companies from 22 countries across the world culminating in 933 companies in comprised attendance.
