Abstract: A soldering installation (1) is provided for run-through and shuttle operation, in particular for the run-through soldering of printed circuit boards on a soldering machine. It is equipped with a feeder mechanism (4) for the transport of soldering frames (18) to which printed circuit boards are fixed. The feeder mechanism (4) has a travel distance of at least 2 frames. In the first half of the feeder mechanism (4) is a device (31) for the holding of a frame (18) as well as an activator (32) for the release of the frame (18). A transport mechanism, (5) running synchronously with the feeder mechanism (4) bridges the soldering machine. An electric motor (37) with adjustable speed and reversibility drives these parts (4 and 5).
