Soldering iron tips are expensive to replace. Improperly maintained tips can also be responsible for a considerable percentage of unsatisfactory solder joints. The higher temperatures and increased tin content in lead free solders demands an increased awareness of best-industry practices.
Do all of your hand soldering technicians understand exactly how to maximize tip quality and lifespan? Or do they simply follow their established personal routine?
With tips costing anywhere from $10 to over $100… this IPC training video can reduce the cost of process consumables and increase product quality.
This dual-language (French / English) training DVD is the ideal educational tool to show your technicians how to properly care for soldering iron tips -- and how to avoid many of the pitfalls associated with lead free soldering. Section one provides an introduction describing tip life issues. Section two discusses oxidation build-up, correct tip maintenance and overuse of tip tinners and other abrasive products. Section three discusses the effects of excessive temperature, excessive pressure, wrong size tip, feeding solder into the tip and improper handling.
DVD-FR15C includes a Leader’s Guide, Review Questions and IPC Training Certification* certificates of completion for students who pass the final examination. Time: 23 minutes.
