Our Commitment to You
In recognition of its commitment to providing reliable LEAD-FREE manufacturing solutions,
Cal Quality has been awarded LEAD-FREE process Validation from CE Analytics, a world leader
in LEAD-FREE conversion technologies. Cal Quality's LEAD-FREE initiative ensures the
compliance of its manufacturing process, without adversely affecting technical product
specifications. The process was validated and the first production units were shipped
in May, which met all customer requirements necessary for the European market, proving CQE's
ability to provide safe, non-toxic solutions that satisfy LEAD-FREE standards.
Leaded solder used to affix electrical components to circuit boards has been a primary
source of lead content in electronics manufacturing. Because of its low melting temperature
it has been used for many years to minimize damage to components or the board itself.
Now environmental restrictions on hazardous substances such as lead are being legislated
in order to improve safety and reduce environmental hazards. Alternative materials without
lead require significantly higher process temperatures, more robust components and product
redevelopment in order to meet the new environmental standards.
