Hi all, have not had time to take part of the discussions for a while. Am consulting at another company. They needed help with doing analysis of components. Boeing is incorporated. I got a list of forbidden materials from them. Not many can cope with Boeing's requirements. Only a few in whole Europe! Now, I've a question. Has anyone of you been involved in such tough demands, namely this one...not only they call for checking the finish of every component type, but all values (!!) within each component family. That means, that one sample from EVERY resistor value must be analyzed and reported to Boeing. An incredible job list. Does this make sense? /Inge --------------------------------------------------- Technet Mail List provided as a service by IPC using LISTSERV 15.0 To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt or (re-start) delivery of Technet send e-mail to [log in to unmask]: SET Technet NOMAIL or (MAIL) To receive ONE mailing per day of all the posts: send e-mail to [log in to unmask]: SET Technet Digest Search the archives of previous posts at: http://listserv.ipc.org/archives Please visit IPC web site http://www.ipc.org/contentpage.asp?Pageid=4.3.16 for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-615-7100 ext.2815 -----------------------------------------------------
