STI Electronics Develops IPC J-STD-001 Certification Kit with Lead-Free Option

Aug. 13, 2010 - PRLog -- MADISON, AL — STI Electronics, Inc., a full service organization providing training, electronic and industrial distribution, consulting, laboratory analysis, prototyping, and small- to medium-volume PCB assembly, has developed an IPC J-STD-001 Certification Kit with a lead-free option.

Soldering workmanship kits are required for certification training under the J-STD-001 Certification and Training Program for both CIT (Trainers) and CIS (Operators). STI’s certification kit is available in lead-free as well as Tin-lead versions. The components are representative of those commonly experienced in today’s industry.

Since the kit has been used for skill training over the years, it is a very useful resource for the transition to lead-free. The kit is packaged with enough components to populate the two boards that are provided. This allows skill development using one board and final assessment with the other. Components and boards also can be purchased individually.
