LONDON -- The SMART Group will give away copies of its Lead-Free Defect Guide at Productronica next month.

The 28-page, color guide features many of the common and less obvious defects seen during the introduction of lead-free products. It shows defects associated with components, boards, design, materials, assembly and rework. It also includes some issues which may be seen on field returns.

Copies will be available at the SMART Group booth, Hall 4, stand 303 in the British Trade Area. Productronica takes place Nov. 13-16 in Munich.
