I have seen point-to-point soldering iron tip robots in action at a number of factories. The problem is repeatability at delivering good solder joints. Consider a small selective solder machine, the nozzle type: www.ace-protech.com www.air-vac-eng.c

Robot soldering has never really worked well and if you are looking for any volume or repeatability, you may be disappointed! Even though you are using a robot, you are still soldering with an iron and wire solder. This process cant guaranty the be

Steve, I didn't say "buy metcal" I said to contact them. I agree they are expensive to operate. But they do have a pretty good website and great knowledge on how to select the right tip. The thread poster appears that he needs to start at the begi

Lozie We built our own soldering robot using pace soldering irons but we have considered a Apollo Seiko bot for a different facility. I'm curious to know what kind of life you get out of those Apollo Seiko irons with lead-free solder. How many solde

Hello, I am trying to find out your opinion about using soldering bench top soldering robot to solder THT connectors (diffrent). What is your experinces and what is limitation for this system. We can't use wave soldering machine due to the complex

Not a fan of bench top, as you have to load the component and the board into a fixture, then unload afterwards. We trialled with 3 linked ones for some complex boards which worked well, however it was not cheap, and not that fast. I'd look at sel

If you want an inexpensive, good, somewhat dedicated, solution, then I would use a desktop wave pot like Wenesco or better yet Air Vac. The PCBRM10 or PCBRM12 from Air Vac may still be available. Can find on Ebay also. They have a quick change, pr
