Furthermore, by teaming up with key strategic partners in this endeavour, we are pooling our complementary industry expertise to deliver customers a more comprehensive knowledge-base."
The lead-free focus of the event will centre on the most pressing issues facing today's manufacturers. Event content will include discussion of lead-free products, latest generation components, reflow technologies, line flexibility and lead-free developments.
