NRC, DCA, and EPTAC Offer Lead-Free Seminar

June 10, 2004 by Jeff Shepard

NRC Electronics Inc. (Boca Raton, FL) has joined with Design Chain Associates (DCA) and EPTAC Corp. to present a half-day "Introduction to Lead-Free" seminar on the impact of the European Union RoHS and WEEE Hazardous Materials Directives, to be held July 21, 2004, in NRC's Boca Raton facility.

The purpose of the seminar is to discuss how this initiative will impact many business processes, and the areas needed to address to succeed in the transition. More than simply a "manufacturing issue," these directives will impact product development and manufacturing business processes and people, existing relationships with the supply base, and require marshalling additional resources that will have to be addressed in budgets. This seminar will provide insights and tools needed to start planning for the impact of these directives, and how to will meet the requirements. Attendance is free of charge.
