IMMERSION HEATING [13 records]

Record 1 2023-01-31

English

Subject field(s)
  • Welding and Soldering (Metals)
  • Printed Circuits and Microelectronics
DEF

Soldering of printed circuit boards by moving them over a flowing wave of molten solder in a solder bath ...

CONT

Flow soldering is a technique used to bulk solder components onto a printed circuit board. This process is typically used when a single sided [printed circuit board] has a medium to high number of conventional or through-hole components. This process is also often referred to as "wave soldering" because of the wave-like motion the molten solder takes when applied to the [printed circuit board]. The circuit board is passed over a bath of molten solder in which a pump produces an upwelling of solder that looks like a standing wave. As the circuit board makes contact with this wave, the components become soldered to the board.

OBS

... the process permits precise control of the depth of immersion in the molten solder and minimizes heating of the board.
