Basically, this question can be answered with YES, regardless of which cobot is involved. Then comes the big BUT and this is based on the actual character and the possible location or task of the cobot

Why do we install robots overhead in our process cells?

When we use 6-axis robots from our suppliers Stäubli and Mitsubishi, we usually install them overhead in our process cells. The reason for this is simple: in order to integrate as many processes as possible in a small space in the cell, we have to utilise the space for handling the assembly or the workpiece carrier as optimally as possible

Which parameters must be focussed on when evaluating the optimum soldering process?

When developing the best possible technical implementation for soldering tasks, the product with its given design and any possible design adaptations, the desired product quality, the existing and required automation concepts in production and the process quality are at the centre of our activities

How can soldering processes be planned, designed and implemented sustainably and ecologically?

Sustainable, ecological soldering processes can be realised in various ways. Of course, the simplest option is to optimise the overall process in terms of energy requirements alone so that it consumes as little electricity as possible

How can flux be applied effectively and sparingly before the selective soldering process?

Fluxes, such as those from our partner Emil Otto, are an essential part of a soldering process. The application of flux, as an independent process, therefore requires just as much expertise as the subsequent soldering process

What temperatures can be reached during high-temperature soldering and where are they used?

With specific selective soldering processes from Eutect, coated enamelled copper wires can be thermally soldered in a single step and without additional removal of the insulation. The core expertise in lead-free processing of characteristic solder alloys forms the specific process knowledge

How can batch size 1 be effortlessly integrated into the selective inline soldering process?

Batch sizes of 1 or small quantities pose challenges for every process, because the established series production has to be interrupted in a time-consuming manner. New ideas and concepts are therefore necessary

How can THT soldering with solder wire at high volumes be optimised in terms of cycle time?

Soldering with solder wire always requires two consecutive processes: the feeding of the solder wire and the melting due to the heat input. It is not possible to carry out both processes simultaneously

When do I use thermode soldering or iron soldering and when do I use the Laser Knife?

Compared to conventional thermode soldering, the Laser Knife offers a significantly higher process speed and energy efficiency. Thanks to the non-contact soldering process with a laser beam, we achieve up to 10 times the speed of thermode soldering and reduce the energy requirement by 70%.

Which soldering process delivers the best quality results?

To be clear from the outset, this topic is purely theoretical. The facts listed here are achievable when working in a perfect production environment, with pre-products without tolerances etc.

Do you have ball formations on the wire or solder joint during laser soldering?

A flawless solder pattern is essential for a clean, reproducible laser soldering process. Solder balls during the soldering process must be avoided at all costs, as they can cause short circuits on the assembly or non-reproducible solder quantity input

Is preheating assemblies unnecessary stress for components?

Each preheating process must be checked physico-chemically in holistic coordination with the neighbouring components, soldering surfaces, heat sinks, solder penetration and quality requirements for the process sequence, as each heating process can trigger an additional ageing process for the assembly to be processed

Does your soldering process cause burns on the assembly?

When it comes to burns during laser soldering, there are many factors and influences to consider, from positioning, selecting the right focus diameter, the optimum solder wire and the process surfaces of the joining partners, through to other influencing variables

Wire kinking? Problems with piston or laser soldering?

Do you have to deal with the tangled wires in your piston, induction or laser soldering automation on a daily basis? Is your soldering process using solder wire feed inaccurate, not reproducible or do you have so-called "antenna soldering"?

Do you want to prevent solder beads?

Do solder beads form during your selective or wave soldering process? Are you applying the right amount of flux? Are you preheating your product to activate the flux?

How can blowholes be avoided when soldering THT components?

One reason may be that the solder pin, including the solder pin housing environment, seals the hole in which it is inserted tightly from above and thus prevents the air from escaping upwards from the solder joint. In this case, it may be that the hole diameter for the pin is too narrow and that it needs to be adjusted during a design review

Do you have too little flux on the solder joint but too much on the assembly?

The devil is often in the detail when it comes to precise fluxing. If you adjust the flux application that applies the flux to the circuit board, you can control the result quite precisely, even if the flux is applied very quickly

Which selective soldering process is the right one for my end product?

Processed components (SMD/THT?), number of assemblies and solder joints, cycle times, PCB design and number of profile changes and, finally, the budget. These parameters are checked in an evaluation that takes place in the EUTECT technical centre
