  • Publication number: 20120088202
    Abstract: A heating device for a soldering system. One embodiment of the heating device has at least one heating nozzle equipped with at least two tubular outlet channels. At least one outlet channel of the heating nozzle is arranged at an angle opposite another outlet channel of the heating nozzle. One embodiment of a selective soldering system is also provided. The selective soldering system comprises a heating device and a selective soldering device which is connected downstream from the heating device. The heating device is equipped with at least one heating nozzle in order to guide the heating current in the direction of a flat side of each board to be soldered. At least one heating nozzle is equipped with at least two tubular outlet channels, and at least one outlet channel of each heating nozzle is arranged at an angle opposite another outlet channel of each heating nozzle.

  • Patent number: 7159754
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for soldering an object comprising several soldered joints. The method comprises the steps of mechanically soldering of at least some of the soldered joints, visually assessing the soldered joints, and correctively soldering the visually assessed soldered joints that do not meet the relevant quality requirements. The visual assessment takes place by means of a video camera and a computing device connected to the video camera. The assessment criteria for the soldered joints are stored in the computing device. The invention also relates to an apparatus for carrying out the method.

  • Patent number: 5731518
    Abstract: An apparatus for applying solder enhancing liquid flux to objects for soldering including a fluxer wherein the density of the liquid flux supplied to the fluxer is controlled by a device for determining the density intermediately a flux storage container, and the fluxer; the density determining device producing an output signal whereby the quantity of diluent supplied to a liquid flux storage container is controlled. The density determining device includes a liquid flux pressure measurer with a vessel extending thereabove which includes an overflow to maintain constant flux liquid level therein.
