We have tried solderability testing using an agressive flux and have had good results. However, our Mfg process uses laser soldering equipment which is a validated process and we are limited on the type and amount of flux we can use due to ionic cont

I would like to recommend QUICK soldering robots as a BEST VALUE for hot iron table tops. Laser Soldering is not very friendly (FYI)

We have 30 years of soldernig experience, 25 years in soldering robotics, and have had laser based systems for a few years now. I'm not sure you need a laser for this application. It's really going to depend on whether or not an iron tip can get in

Rob is right, you do need to dispense paste or pre-forms when using a laser. Although the Panasonic Soft Beam has a wire despenser. I've seen laser soldering and it does work on smaller stuff. Doesn't work well on connectors even after preheating.

Check out Panasonic FA (Soft Beam) think they might be able to provide you with additional information. Just my two cents.

Craig, I know just what you are looking for as we run product that is very similar to what you are talking about. Currently we have a in-house made soldering robot the we are using to solder

Also look at VI Technology they have a number of machines, I've used the LS180 and it's increadibly good, very easy to program and has a host of features that soem of the othesr don't have. http://www.vitechnology.com/laser/ls180.htm the beam works i

Laser Soldering by nature is a very dialed in process. - Requiring specially formulated flux and solder paste applications that will perform while absorbing a massive amount of energy. What I believe "Gary" is attempting to say is: Laser Soldering c
