PACE to Sponsor IPC Hand Soldering Competition at What’s New in Electronics (WNIE) Show in UK on 25-26 September

Sep 20, 2018

Vass, NC20 Sept 2018PACE Worldwide will participate as a sponsor in the IPC Hand Soldering Competition being hosted at the What’s New in Electronics (WNIE) Show in Birmingham UK from 25-26 September. Skilled competitors will use PACE’s new ADS200 AccuDrive Production Soldering Station as they vie for cash prizes: 1st place — £200 (and bragging rights as the best hand soldering technician in the United Kingdom) plus a trip to the World Hand Soldering Championship at IPC APEX EXPO 2019; 2nd place — £100; 3rd place — £50. Assemblies will be judged on soldering in accordance with IPC-A-610G Class 3 criteria, the speed at which the assembly was produced and overall electrical functionality of the assembly. IPC-A-610 Master Instructors will serve as the judges. The soldering station being used during the competition is PACE’s ADS200, which features a rugged, all-metal design, including housing, soldering iron and tool stand. The system is intuitive and easy to operate – just power it on, set the temperature with arrow keys and start soldering. No training required. The ADS200 is supplied with groundbreaking new TD-200 Tip-Heater Cartridge Soldering Iron, with its sleek and ergonomic aluminum handle designed to stay cool and comfortable during continuous production soldering. Event attendees who are interested, can stop by booth F66 in Hall 1 at the NEC Birmingham to see the competition or visit with PACE at booth E56 to see the latest in soldering, rework and fume extraction products.
