As the organizer, easyFairs SA/NV brings extensive experience in managing professional trade events across Europe. The company’s focus on combining business networking with educational value is clearly reflected in Future Lighting’s format.

EasyFairs ensures that every edition promotes meaningful connections between industry stakeholders from manufacturers and distributors to designers and researchers. Its emphasis on sustainability, digitalization, and community engagement strengthens the event’s role as a catalyst for progress within the lighting industry.

The Growing Importance of Lighting in Modern Life

Lighting is no longer viewed as a purely technical element; it has become a key factor in health, architecture, and environmental design. The discussions at Future Lighting reflect this expanded understanding. Modern lighting solutions now influence everything from workplace productivity to ecological balance in urban settings.

The fair emphasizes how smart lighting can help cities reduce energy consumption, how color temperature and intensity affect human mood, and how digital controls can make buildings more adaptive and efficient. These developments illustrate why lighting is increasingly seen as an essential component of sustainable living.

Looking Ahead: The Bright Future of Future Lighting

As technological innovation accelerates, Future Lighting continues to evolve. Future editions are expected to delve deeper into emerging topics such as AI-driven lighting design, Li-Fi communication technologies, and circular lighting systems that minimize waste and maximize longevity.

The fair’s ongoing commitment to research, education, and sustainability ensures that it remains at the forefront of global lighting trends. For the Netherlands and Belgium, it represents not just a trade fair but a center of excellence for lighting professionals seeking to shape the industry’s future.

Where Science, Design, and Well-Being Converge

Future Lighting is more than a showcase of products it is a celebration of how light can enhance human life and the environment. By uniting technology, creativity, and science under one roof, the fair creates a space where innovation flourishes and ideas illuminate new possibilities.

Through its focus on Human Centric Lighting, sustainability, and smart technologies, Future Lighting continues to guide the industry toward a brighter, healthier, and more connected future quite literally lighting the way forward.

恶劣环境中的电子产品:应对可靠性和设计挑战

现代电子设备正越来越多地部署在充满挑战和要求的环境中。恶劣环境中的电子产品会议和展览为探索工程师和制造商如何制造用于电力电子和恶劣条件的可靠电子设备提供了一个关键平台。从极端温度和湿度到机械冲击和腐蚀性气氛,此类环境对电子元件提出了独特的要求。对高性能、微型化和能效的需求进一步加剧了这些挑战。

在这场关键活动中,行业专家汇聚一堂,不仅讨论可靠性障碍,还讨论有助于降低风险的创新实践、材料和策略。重点不仅仅是理论上的——会议还深入探讨了可在现实世界的设计、制造和运营协议中实施的可操作解决方案


了解环境对电子设备的影响

在恶劣条件下操作电子设备需要应对多种物理和化学压力。其中包括极端温度、压力波动、潮湿和灰尘暴露以及电气过度应力。随着设备越来越多地用于航空航天、汽车、工业自动化和可再生能源等领域,对坚固耐用的电子产品的需求呈指数级增长。
恶劣环境中的主要压力源包括:

热循环和过热

腐蚀性化学物质和气体

电磁干扰 (EMI)

机械振动和冲击

高湿度和冷凝

这些因素可能导致一系列故障,包括焊点老化、信号完整性损失和设备完全故障。工程师在设计或选择组件时必须考虑所有这些因素。


组件集成和封装挑战

会议期间讨论的紧迫问题之一是组件集成的日益增加的复杂性。随着封装架构向支持高密度组装的发展,误差幅度会降低。更高的互连密度和更大的外形尺寸会增加现场故障的可能性。



设计不当的封装可能会出现:

内部结构故障

下游设备通信错误

二级互连中的裂缝

热循环导致焊点退化

不仅仅是组件本身,还关系到它们在设备外壳内的组装、连接和保护方式。


焊接:隐形威胁

一个关键且经常被忽视的领域是焊接过程。焊接材料和应用技术的进步是恶劣环境电子会议讨论的重要话题。如果管理不当,焊接残留物会严重影响可靠性。
常见的焊接问题包括:

助焊剂残留物的形成

冷焊点

焊接桥接

热应力下电路板的分层

残留物,尤其是离子污染物,可能导致间歇性甚至完全故障。使用正确的清洁方法、控制焊接温度和遵守新的焊接标准可以显著提高长期可靠性。


过程控制和监控最佳实践

可靠的电子产品不仅源于良好的设计,还源于严格的制造控制。过程监控和可追溯性是会议的关键主题。他们确保出货的每台设备都符合要求的性能阈值。


确保制造质量的最佳实践:

实时过程监控系统

自动光学检测 (AOI)

环境压力筛查 (ESS)

全面的数据记录和可追溯性

集成人工智能用于预测性

故障分析生产周期中越早发现故障,纠正就越容易、更具成本效益。


保护性涂层和清洁技术

另一个重点领域是保护性涂层和清洁剂的应用,以确保设备能够承受恶劣的环境。保护层可防止湿气进入、灰尘和腐蚀,这些是暴露应用中常见的故障驱动因素。



适当的清洁和涂层:

防止树突状生长

提高绝缘电阻

延长组件寿命

减少频繁维护

的需求材料、应用方法和固化过程的选择直接影响这些保护措施的效率。恶@@


劣环境电子领域的新兴标准和创新电子
