Separation and Control of Non-RoHS

Complient Materials

RoHS Compliant

Separation and control of different types of components is critical to assure that a given product is truly RoHS-compliant. Currently, there is no universal agreement within the supply chain to designate unique part numbers for RoHS compliant components vs. non-RoHS compliant items. Many component manufacturers choose to identify compliant parts by lot code or date code instead of unique part numbers.

RoHS Standards

Since no industry-wide supply chain identification standard exists for RoHS compliance, to achieve this goal, Tru-Tronics Intl. has instituted procedures to distinguish between RoHS-compliant and non-compliant components. This ensures that each compliant OEM product contains only compliant components and is assembled with lead-free soldering.

Tru-Tronics Intl.

Ensure RoHS Compliance:

BOM "scrubbing" to determine current compliance of each component.
Research and specification of alternate components.
Implementing new assembly processes.
Prototyping of redesigned assemblies.
Reliability testing of new, compliant designs.
Production.

It is nearly inevitable that some amount of non-compliant material will be stranded as excess and obsolete inventory because of this transition. Tru-Tronics Intl. works closely with OEMs to implement changeover strategy.
