Soldertec encourages its customers to think of Curo Park as an extension of their own laboratories. Our in-house suite of well equipped laboratories is capable of short term investigative work, or long term project work. We have the ability to work with mechanical, chemical or industry standard methods to find the answer to your problem; and this can often involve more than one technique.

The list of products that we can test can be seen below.

Bulk solder alloys or powders
