CAPLINQ announced today its plans to represent Profound Material Technology Co., Ltd to its customer base in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Under the terms of the agreement, CAPLINQ will represent Profound Materials’ soldering materials line with focus on their solder sphere offering.
High-Tech Tin
Profound Materials’ offering goes beyond tin-lead to include lead-free, ultra-low alpha and electro-plated solder spheres in a range of diameters from 0.075mm to 0.89mm (3 to 35 mil). Profound Material is not only capable to manufacture the alloys and purify the solder material, but it has an innovative diameter and spheroid selecting system of solder balls and an advanced anti-oxidation technology that actually dopes an anti-oxidation element into the alloy in addition to its OSP surface coating process.
Not only are Profound Materials’ products High-Tech, but it uses a unique uniform droplet spraying technology that far outperforms competitors in terms of productivity. This combination of high technology and high productivity allow Profound Materials to offer its customers the best value for the best product.
“We are truly excited about with this joint business venture with Chris Perabo and the CAPLINQ team," remarked Audrey Huang, Marketing and Sales Department Manager for Profound Materials. "We truly believe that with the reputation and expertise of Mr. Perabo, which is well known in the semiconductor industry, we will be well positioned to capitalize on all the business opportunities in the European semiconductor market."
A strategic fit
The range of solder spheres offered by Profound Materials complements the strategic direction of CAPLINQ, whose aim is to supply a complete line of products to semiconductor manufacturers thereby enabling them to reduce their time-to-market.
“Profound Materials’ solder sphere offerings are the answers to what customers have been asking for,” stated Chris Perabo, Founder of CAPLINQ. “The partnership of our two companies in this joint effort will allow a larger European customer base to appreciate what Profound Materials can offer them.”
