- Would you like to know what your wire feeder really did during the soldering process?
If you would like to obtain data from your soldering process to know exactly what is happening during soldering, then we recommend that you contact us regarding our SWF wire feed module Contact us - it's worth it - it is the world's only wire feeder based on "actio-reactio" and therefore force-controlled.
- Are you busy every day with the wire salad in your piston, induction or laser soldering automation to fix?
- Is your soldering process using solder wire feed inaccurate, not reproducible or do you have so-called "aerial soldering"?
Try to align your energy source, whether soldering iron, induction external circuit or laser focus, so that the energy acts on the one hand into the connection partner with the highest heat sink and on the other hand into the solder wire. This allows you to achieve faster melting of the solder wire and thus a thermal bridge between the partners to be joined and therefore better solder joint formation.
Also note the adjustable feed, process and retraction speeds of the solder wire; these three variable parameters offer relevant optimisation options.
If this does not help or you want to further optimise your cycle time and intermetallic phase, try pre-tinning the partners to be joined and then feeding them into the soldering process with filler wire, paste or preform.
As there are many different solder wire applications worldwide, there are also many different challenges for which we have developed our own solutions. Contact us and we will help you to optimise your soldering process.
