RPS Introduces New Military Compliant Lead Tinning System



Anthem System Meets MIL, NASA, ANSI, IEC, GEIA Standards for Component Re-Tinning

Spokane Valley, WA, - RPS Automation LLC, a manufacturer of precision soldering automation equipment to the OEM, circuit board manufacturing and assembly industries, today announced the introduction of the Anthem Lead Tinning System(TM), a fully ANSI, MIL, IEC and GEIA compliant system. The Anthem is the first of its kind to offer this level of high reliability military standards compliance in a small-footprint and affordable package. The Anthem is suited for high precision, low-mid volume in-house re-tinning of electronic components and leads. This product is available immediately and will be at APEX 2010/Las Vegas.

Reid Henry, Engineering Director for RPS Automation, stated, "This is a leap forward in functionality, footprint and ease of use. Based on feedback from dozens of existing lead tinning customers, we were able to make tremendous strides in ease of maintenance, all while adding the new functionality to meet the complex requirements of the IEC and MIL standards."
