San Diego — KIC, Kester and Metcal will co-host a seminar, "Project 2005: Achieving Lead-free RoHS Assembly," on Thursday, April 7, 2005, at the Four Points Sheraton in Sunnyvale, CA.
 
The companies' experience in soldering technology (both leaded and lead-free) can help industry companies become compliant with the RoHS directives. The seminar is designed to assist companies in transitioning reliably without false starts. The series brings together the information that will save companies many engineering hours of research and will give what is needed to achieve lead-free and RoHS compliancy rapidly.
 
Topics include: lead-free and RoHS directive overview; impact to a company's operations; impact of dual systems, leaded and lead-free; boards and RoHS requirements; components and RoHS requirements; lead-free soldering and alloy selection; surface finish changes and solderability; equipment changes and process modifications; optimizing the wave solder operation; BGA rework practices; hand soldering and rework production issues; preventing soldering defects with lead-free; contamination controls; training and documentation with lead-free; field service issues with lead-free; and finished assembly identification and traceability.
 

Lunch and refreshments will be provided. Attendees will receive a lead-free assembly technical manual and detailed white papers; a subscription to the Lead-Free Connection Newsletter; and valuable process information and technical tips to achieve solid lead-free processes.
