DES PLAINES, IL —Kester will host a lead-free seminar titled, "Project 2005: Achieving Lead-free RoHS Assembly" on June 16 in Minneapolis, MN.  

The seminar does not concentrate on specific consumer applications. It will present the various complexities of assemblies and what your company needs to do to comply with the European WEEE and RoHS Directives.

The seminar will address key lead-free assembly issues and give you technical, practical information to transition in a timely fashion so your company can maintain reliability and production yields.

This seminar will also tackle the needs expressed by companies as they transition to both lead-free assembly and implementation of the RoHS directive. It addresses the new standards that will assist a company towards a smooth transition.

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, white papers and a subscription to the Lead-Free Connection Newsletter.
