Why do the prices of lead-free solder paste vary? Let's briefly discuss.

Believe a lotSMTBuyers of surface mount technology (SMT) factories will all encounter such problems:The same lead-free solder paste may have different prices when searched online. Why? Today, the solder paste manufacturer will talk about the price of lead-free solder paste:

The main factors influencing the price of lead-free solder paste are as follows:

1Raw material prices

The raw materials for lead-free solder paste production are solder powder and flux. The prices of various solder powders and fluxes vary.

2Manufacturing cost

The manufacturing costs of solder paste from different solder paste manufacturers also vary. For instance, the cost of manual production is higher than that of mechanical production, and the quality of solder paste produced manually is very unstable.

3Service cost

The services provided by different manufacturers also vary. Enterprises with good services tend to have higher solder paste prices, which directly leads to the price differences of solder paste.

4Transportation cost

The address of the manufacturer is fixed, while the demanders of lead-free solder paste come from all over the country, which leads to different transportation costs in each place.

The above four factors have had an impactLead-free solder pasteThe price change also leads to different prices for lead-free solder paste of the same specification.
