OEMs operating in regulated industries can’t afford to fall behind on evolving industry standards. In 2025, the IPC — the global authority on PCB assembly standards — has released updates that directly impact how manufacturers handle soldering, inspection, documentation, and training.
At DISTRON, we’re ahead of these updates — and committed to ensuring your builds remain compliant, consistent, and high quality.
What’s Changing in 2025:
- Stricter criteria for lead-free soldering in Class 3 high reliability builds
- Clearer definitions between Class 2 and Class 3 inspection classifications
- Increased emphasis on documentation, traceability, and lot-level tracking
- Expanded training requirements for certified IPC technicians
Why It Matters for OEMs:
- Higher quality expectations in sectors like medical, aerospace, and defense
- Tighter scrutiny from regulators, customers, and auditors
