Ioan,
It depends, based on the relationship between the OEM and the EMS (and
on how much you rely on the EMS inspection):
1. if the production is being done as a full-turn key outsourcing,
then the OEM should supply accurate criteria and the EMS shall inspect.
2. If the OEM procures the materials and the shipments are dropped
directly to the EMS - the EMS shall inspect, again - based on the OEM
criteria.
3. If the OEM procured and receives then the OEM inspects.

Subject: [LF] Incoming inspection for RoHS compliance
Hi Lead-free gang,
how do you see the very near, too near, future of the incoming
inspection? Will an EMS be responsible for checking the material, or
it's rather the responsibility of the OEM to control the material
through compliant AVLs and certificates of compliance from the
suppliers? Of course the EMS will make sure to use lead-free materials.
Now, in case the EMS will decide to inspect for RoHS compliance, what
equipment is out there, that I could check? I only know of the hand
helds from Niton that check for the metals, but not for the pbde and
pbb.
And, in the same line, the testing procedure available on Soldertech's
web is still valid? Was it approved? Should I base the assessment of
test equipment on the methods in this procedure?
Thanks,
Ioan
