Labels for Lead-Free PCB Manufacturing

The RoHS Directive... Implications to Barcode Labels

The European Union’s Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive bans the sale of electronic products that contain certain toxic substances, including lead. Lead-free manufacturing requires higher processing temperatures, which may lead to the use of new chemical cleaning agents that could result in discoloration or curling of the label, rendering the barcode information useless.
