Get your lead-free processes correct from the start
29 June 2005Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services
The change to lead-free manufacturing is an opportunity to leapfrog competitors. According to a leading provider of equipment and process material for electronics manufacturing, Dek, by making sure all your processes are perfectly re-optimised from the beginning, companies can be achieving consistently high end of line yield while others are still developing their processes.
For optimal placement accuracy and high quality solder joints, it is imperative that the screen printing process is accurate. Dek, therefore created the Dek lead-free portfolio: lead-free products and services comprising focused process auditing and high-quality process solutions; all delivered by experienced lead-free screen-printing practitioners.
The Dek lead-free process audit provides a solid foundation to migrate screen printing processes to lead-free. The audit data aids rapid process development, enabling direct optimisation of materials, machine settings and stencil characteristics.
In addition to this, the company's 'Site Implementation Plan' methodology, executed by experienced Dek applied process engineers, can help speed roll-out as well as replication at other sites world-wide, through its global applied process engineering capability.
