Valor Computerized Systems has announced a full Pb-free environment control solution covering market-leading machine vendors, regardless of brand and model generation. The TraceXpert operations monitoring and control solution for EMS companies delivers machine vendor neutrality for line-monitoring, real-time materials management, optimized assembly line performance and component traceability.
With the July deadline for the RoHS Directive almost here,
electronics manufacturers are focused on sourcing Pb-free components through improved and revised production and inspection processes for compliance. TraceXpert assists that process by blocking uncertified AVL components from entering the assembly cycle, by preventing unauthorized operators from running the Pb-free process, by ensuring proper control of moisture-sensitive devices and preventing inadvertent tampering with process parameters. In addition, exact traceability capabilities allow manufacturers to produce device compliance history records, and provide customers and authorities with evidence to support their Pb-free process certification.
