IPC-VT-ZDS
Zero Defect Soldering - Video Workshop

Eliminating solder joint touch up and inspection will improve product quality and
reduce cost, yet it often seems impossible to develop and maintain this level of
efficiency.  This two-video workshop explains the basic technical requirements and
the organizational linkage that must be developed for such a program to function
correctly and permanently.  The workshop provides all the information necessary to
initiate an Aero Defect Program, including the theory of making a solder joint, the
importance of the intermetallic compound, the importance of wetting and solder joint
criteria, understanding and selecting fluxes and solder, the danger of rework and how
to avoid it, solder joint inspection - the expensive, ineffective operation, process
control and the soldering process, defining responsibilities and authorities, and
putting together a complete zero defect program.  Presented by Ralph Woodgate of
WoodCorp. Recorded at IPC Assembly Expo, October 1998.  Includes 52 page handbook
containing 149 images presented during the Workshop.  Edited to two videotapes.
Time: 2 hours 32 minutes.
