Laser Soldering Robot
Precise soldering for micro applications. Fancort offers the latest Laser Soldering Robot Technology using Japan UNIX is the world leader in laser soldering equipment with spot sizes as small as 0.1mm. Laser makes possible what other types of soldering cannot accomplish. Fancort has a laser soldering equipment in our process development lab available for sampling and process development. Typical Laser Setup Starts at $185,000 USD

Laser Soldering Process
1. The laser illuminates the soldering point.
2. The illuminated area emits heat (surface heat emission).
3. The heat transfers into the surrounding area and is raised to the melting temperature.
4. Solder is supplied

Advantages of Laser Soldering
Contact vs Non-contact
Contact
Possible Stress
• Physical contact to the substrate
• Flux residue (carbide)
Dead Space
• It is necessary to secure space for the tip and solder wire feed.
Solder Amount
• There is a certain amount of solder that is brought to the wet surface of the tip.
Laser
Possible Stress
• No physical contact
• No carbide
Dead Space
• It is necessary to secure just solder wire feeding space
• Solder paste
• Any type of preform are approachable
Solder Amount
• Fed solder properly amounts

FAQs
Laser Soldering (Desktop and Inline Apps)
Q: What are the most common reasons to select laser soldering technologies?
A: Micro Soldering (0.02mm spot), non-contact (allows for reflow only), no iron tip consumables, automatic spot size change.
Q: Is laser soldering faster than contact soldering?
A: Laser soldering can be slightly faster because it eliminates some mechanical movement or when used only to reflow.
Q: Does Japan Unix maintain FDA safety approval to sell laser machines in the US?
A: Absolutely
Q: How are the laser positions programmed?
A: Japan Unix was the first company to develop laser soldering more than a decade ago with the patented direct line-of-sight teaching camera that allows you to look directly through the laser beam. This makes teaching easy and avoid inaccuratie due to angle distortion.
Q: Does Japan Unix offer pyrometer modulated power controls (power cruse control)?
A: Yes, Japan Unix is the leader in direct temperature measured laser control.
