Traceability Labels Aid Board Clean-up
August 22, 2005 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
BEVERLY, Mass. — Computer Imprintable Label Systems' (CILS) labels allow manufacturers to track products through solder baths and cleaning for long-term traceability. For lead-free components, the labels fully comply with the Directives, and withstand the chemicals used in the new cleaning processes, retaining valuable data contained either in the barcode or serial numbers. The labels can withstand temperatures in excess of 400°C, as well as the cleaning systems developed for lead-free solder. Labels can be supplied blank or pre-printed with variable data added on-demand with thermal transfer printers.
