Note: Soldering 3 copper spacers to circuit board simultaneously
Objective:
Soldering three copper spacers on a circuit board simultaneously
End Product:
PCB spacers
Equipment:
Ambrell 4.2 kW induction heating system, equipped with a remote workhead containing two 1.5μF capacitors for a total of 0.75μF An induction heating coil designed and developed specifically for this application.
Materials:
Circuit board with 3 copper spacers .5” (12.7mm) diameter and solder preforms
Temperature:
464 ºF (240 ºC)
Frequency:
323 kHz
Testing:
A two-turn helical coil is used to heat 3 spacers at once. Power is supplied for 30 seconds to melt the solder preforms on the three spacers and create a solder joint without over-heating the board
Benefits:
Induction heating provides:
-
Precise and controlled application of heat
-
Repeatable, non-contact, clean heating process
-
Increased production capacity
-
Energy efficient
