BEST Lead-Free Roadmap

BEST, Inc. provides the electronics manufacturing industry with training solutions, rework and repair services, and products such as solder training kits, PCB repair kits and StencilQuik.

As a service provider, BEST must respond to customer demand. Although BEST provides many services, the services that have the greatest impact on the lead-free reduction/elimination process are Rework & Repair, BGA Rework, and small-run prototype builds. Our reduction and elimination of tin/lead solder from these processes will be determined by the demands of our customers.

BEST will provide services for three groups of customers:

Those that require rework of assemblies manufactured with tin/lead solder.
Those that require rework of assemblies with both tin/lead and lead-free solders.
Those that require rework of assemblies with lead-free solder only.

The attached lead free rework roadmap defines our organization's vision to processing lead free PCB assemblies:
