The electronics manufacturing industry is evolving rapidly, and staying ahead requires more than just keeping pace. It requires deep technical knowledge, practical solutions, and the ability to apply new insights directly to your processes. That’s exactly what you’ll find at SMTA International 2025, taking place October 19 – 23, 2025, in Rosemont, Illinois.


This year’s technical program features six specialized tracks, each designed to tackle the most pressing challenges and opportunities in the industry. Whether you’re looking to refine your process, strengthen reliability, or explore emerging technologies, these tracks are your gateway to actionable knowledge.


Additively Manufactured Electronics (AME)

Explore the latest advances in additive processes, from materials and recipes to assembly and reliability. Learn how printed and additively manufactured electronics are transforming design and production methods, creating efficiencies and opportunities for miniaturization.


Advanced Packaging (APT)

Dive into innovations in first-level packaging and assembly. Presentations highlight new techniques that enhance performance, reduce size, and support the ever-increasing demands of high-performance applications across consumer, automotive, and industrial markets.


Low Temperature Solder (LTS)

Discover developments enabling reflow soldering below 200°C. Lower temperature processes reduce energy consumption, minimize material stress, and make it possible to integrate more delicate components into advanced designs.


Manufacturing for Excellence (MFX)

See how current project work is improving manufacturing process areas across the industry. This track delivers practical insights into process optimization, efficiency, and strategies that directly support manufacturing excellence.


Reliability and Harsh Environments (RHE)

Gain a deeper understanding of the methods and materials needed to ensure reliability under extreme conditions. From aerospace to automotive, this track focuses on ensuring electronics perform when failure is not an option.


Test and Inspection (INS)

Learn about the latest tools and approaches to testing and inspection, ensuring both short- and long-term product performance. As designs become increasingly complex, inspection plays a critical role in improving yields and process confidence.


A Program Designed for You

The SMTA International 2025 technical tracks are built for engineers, researchers, and decision-makers who want to:

  • Stay current with the latest industry advancements

  • Solve pressing challenges in their processes

  • Build confidence in product reliability and performance
