Induction soldering uses electromagnetic fields to generate heat directly in conductive materials. The process is based on the principle that a rapidly alternating magnetic field causes electrical currents (so-called eddy currents) in a conductive material by induction. These currents generate heat, which has a controlled effect on the solder joint. One major advantage of this process is that the heating is precise and localized, so that adjacent components are not heated unnecessarily. The contactless heating makes induction soldering particularly suitable for sensitive components, since mechanical stresses are reduced to a minimum.
In combination with the Wire feeders, in particular when using our Sensitive Wire Feeder (SWF) , induction soldering becomes a highly efficient process. The patented SWF wire feeder module, the only force and path-controlled wire feeder in the world, can detect evasive or incorrectly fed wire by means of force detection and measurement. For Laser soldering, induction soldering and Piston soldering , the controlled wire feeder is a key technological requirement for making the entire soldering process safe and reproducible. With its electromechanical sensors, the SWF enables optimally controllable, reproducible and kink-free feeding of the wire, setting new standards in process reliability.
