Reflow soldering uses solder paste to attach components to a circuit board and heat the entire unit, creating permanent welds. It is the primary method for surface mount devices. Solder paste is made from flux and powdered solder, and is applied through dispensing or printing with a stencil. The reflow soldering process involves four temperature […]
A reflow oven is used for surface mount technology in electronics manufacturing. It allows for easier construction of devices and ensures correct fitting of components through reflow soldering techniques. There are different types, including infrared, convection, vapor phase, and industrial ovens. Homemade ovens are also an option but may have cooling difficulties. A reflow oven […]
