Summer heat for some means spontaneous family trips, poolside fun, and relaxing beaches. However, it’s a different story for those in manufacturing. Summer heat equates to occupational hazards.

The pandemic disrupted the food ecosystem by giving an opportunity to reinvent safer, healthier, resilient, and sustainable food systems. The World Health Organisation (WHO) emphasised on Food Safety being a public health priority and a human right. Food Safety is a shared responsibility of all the participants in the food supply chain and collaborative approaches would bring new technology innovations in this ecosystem.

The Printed Circuit Board assembly process involves the placement and soldering of the electronic components on the bare board (Circuit Board minus the components) which can be accomplished either by manual assembly or Surface Mount Technique (SMT) line assembly methods. Surface mount technique involved soldering of components on the bare board, while other method involved drilling holes in the bare board, and that’s called through-hole assembly. Both through-hole and surface mount components can be soldered manually on a PCB. With the shrinking chip sizes and dense circuitry, SMT line assembly is the widely used PCB assembly technique today.
