Solder is a fusible metal alloy used to join together metal workpieces and having a melting point below that of the workpiece(s). Soft solder is typically thought of when solder or soldering is mentioned, with a typical melting range of 90 to 450 °C . It is commonly used in electronics, plumbing, and assembly of sheet metal parts. Manual soldering uses a soldering iron or soldering gun. Alloys that melt between 180 and 190 °C (360 and 370 °F) are the most commonly used. Soldering performed using alloys with a melting point above 450 °C (840 °F) is called brazing. Solder are used at that places where robotic parts does not experience high forces or pressure change.
Soldering Tips:
- Â Heat up the soldering iron.
- After soldering iron is fully heated, use a wet sponge to softly scrape the tip to remove old solder.
- Wait seconds to heat and dry the iron, carefully apply a small amount of fresh solder and coat the tip for pre-soldering before start.
- Â When soldering two components together, place the soldering iron on the part where you want to touch, hold it there for a second.
- Â Slide the solder underneath the tip of the iron, sandwiching it to the joining part, and hold it for another second or two, feeding in enough solder you need.
- Pull away the solder first, and continue holding the iron for another second to let the solder forming a good joint.
- Remove the iron, wait a few seconds and let the solder natural cooling. A good soldering done.
