DES PLAINES, Ill. — Kester's lead-free seminar series, titled "Project 2005: Achieving Lead-free RoHS Assembly," is heading to Dallas, Texas, and will be held on September 13, 2005. Designed to assist the electronics industry in transitioning to lead-free soldering and RoHS compliancy successfully, the seminars address key lead-free assembly issues and give technical, practical information to transition in a timely fashion.
Kester Project 2005 presents the various complexities of assemblies and what companies need to do to comply with the European WEEE and RoHS Directives. This seminar offers complete information and case studies to make these products reliable with lead-free while being RoHS-compliant. Eight hours of presentation, ideas and discussion will cover the following topics: lead-free and RoHS directive overview; supply changes and procurement issues; board/component requirements; lead-free alloy selection for SMT, wave and rework; lead-free wave and SMT process optimization; impact of dual systems; BGA rework practices; hand soldering process changes; lead-free RoHS reliability; field rework and training; and training and documentation.
Attendees will receive a lead-free assembly technical manual and CD containing presentation materials; technical white papers; and the Lead-Free Connection Newsletter, issued quarterly, consisting of valuable process information and technical tips to achieve solid lead-free processes.
