Lead Free Solder Training

This one-day Hands On course explains the differences between lead free and tin-lead solder -- for solder joint touch up and rework. Topics covered include component removal, land preparation, component replacement and the correct methods for touch up and rework.  Hand soldering  techniques include point-to-point soldering, drag soldering and touching up joints with too little solder and solder bridge removal.

Also covers why companies are making the switch to lead free processes, the characteristics of lead free solder alloys and lead free solder joint evaluation -- comparing target, acceptable and unacceptable lead free joints with their tin-lead counterparts. Designed with rework technicians in mind to help them make the lead free switch with knowledge and confidence.
