Note: Soldering wires onto connector assemblies

Objective:

Heat connector assemblies for soldering 

End Product:

connector assembly

Equipment:

Ambrell 2.4 kW induction heating system equipped with a remote heat station, containing two 0.66 µF capacitor. An induction heating coil designed and developed specifically for this application

Materials:

Device assembly, tin-plated brass terminals, solder paste

Temperature:

500*F (260*C) 5-7 seconds

Frequency:

360 kHz

Testing:

A single-turn helical coil is used to heat the solder paste. The connectors are placed inside the induction heating coil and RF power is applied for 5-7 seconds until the connector heats. Solder paste is applied to the joint in two ways, stick-fed or manually.

Benefits:

Compared to using a manual soldering iron, induction heating precisely applies heat to for higher quality solder joints

This is ideal for integrating with an automated system. By stick- feeding the solder more aesthetically pleasing parts are produced.
