RoHS Compliance going into the future24.07.2014
Since 2006, the RoHS (Restriction of the use of Hazardous Substances), has steadily tightened guidelines set to limit the values of industrially-necessary, yet potentially harmful substances, including lead, hexavalent chromium, mercury, polybrominated biphenyls, polybromibated diphenyl ethers and cadmium in the manufacture of electronics and electrical equipment. With new RoHS II Standards going into effect July 22, a maximum value of 0.1% of the total product weight is allowed for most of these substances, the exception being cadmium, which will be limited to 0.01%. These standards are similar to regulations that are also in effect in countries such as Germany, Japan, and China, so meeting these material standards is becoming of global importance for manufacturers. Though widely used in a vast array of applications, many metal composite ball bearings contain alloys that are not compatible to these new standards. |
