About Fancort-Japan Unix Robotic Soldering

WHAT IS ROBOTIC SOLDERING?
Robotic soldering is when a robot joins different elements, parts, and or components by employing molten metal and placing it at the exact point to achieve fusion.

 

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF FANCORT-JAPAN UNIX AUTOMATED ROBOTIC SOLDERING?
Some advantages are: consistent high-quality joints, lower operator skills needed, and up to 2x productivity.

HOW ROBOTIC SOLDERING CAN REPLACE OLDER FORMS OF SOLDERING?
The robotic soldering process is typically faster because an operator can load while the robot is simultaneously soldering.

 

WHAT DIFFERENTIATORS CAN FANCORT PROVIDE?
We offer in-line turn-key solutions for high-volume processes, including assembly, dispensing, screw driving, inspection, and other ancillary procedures.

Soldering process

Soldering Process

Pre-Heat: In both processes, the temperature is gradually raised to prevent thermal shock to sensitive components. Flux is applied to clean the surfaces and promote better bonding.

Heating: For contact soldering, a heated iron tip is used to transfer heat to the joint, melting the solder. In laser soldering, a focused laser beam is activated to rapidly heat the solder and components, ensuring precise control over the temperature to avoid damage.

Post-Heat: Solder is applied to the joint in both methods. In contact soldering, the molten solder fills gaps and forms a solid connection. In laser soldering, the solder melts and flows into place, creating a strong bond without overheating surrounding areas.

Cooling: The iron tip or laser is removed, and the joint is allowed to cool, solidifying the solder and ensuring a reliable electrical and mechanical connection.

Both techniques ensure a secure solder joint but differ in their heat application—contact soldering uses a heated iron, while laser soldering uses a focused beam of light.
