Witham, Essex, UK: – Advanced Rework Technology Ltd (A.R.T.), the leading independent provider of IPC-certified and bespoke training services for the electronics assembly industry, has named Justyna M, a technician with Zettlex, a product line of Celera Motion, as the IPC UK hand soldering champion. This is the fourth time that Cambridge-based Justyna has won the award. B
The contest was held at the recent Southern Manufacturing & Electronics show and attracted almost 30 entrants. A.R.T. organized and judged the event on behalf of IPC. Commented A.R.T. director John Vickers: “We would like to offer Justyna our congratulations. She produced a fully functional board, gaining a near-perfect score in under 60 minutes. Just to emphasize her achievement, we received only two fully functional and two partially functional boards from all the contestants. However, this does also highlight the very real need for good training at the electronics technician level.”
A.R.T. offers a range of IPC-certified and bespoke electronics manufacturing courses, held at its own state of the art facilities in Witham, Essex, or at customers’ own premises.
