Apollo Seiko: Superiority in Automated Soldering As part of its automated sol-
chines are unique because they use advanced iron cartridge tech- nology that provides numerous benefits, including eight-second iron cartridge exchange without tools. The iron tip always returns to the exact same position after replacement, and the direct heat- ing system conducts the heat quickly to the iron tip. Sleeve soldering provides a
consistent amount of solder with- out spattering because the high- conductivity sleeve encapsulates the complete melting process. Solder wire is cut to a pro- grammed length before being melted in the ceramic sleeve. It then flows out, leaving
nothing behind. This means pre- cise control over solder used without the risk of solder clogs. It also uses fewer consumable parts, offers less repairs, and provides easy maintenance. Using a ceramic sleeve elim-
inates worries around iron-tip plating oxidizing or eroding. Wetting the solder in the sleeve does not affect the ceramic. This results in virtually no consum- able costs due to the long life of the ceramic sleeve. The simply designed head
allows for quick and easy main- tenance. Maintenance is as ef- fortless as wiping the sleeve as flux fumes do not come in contact with the mechanical feeding components. Laser soldering is a non-con-
tact process that eliminates the risk of damaging sensitive com- ponents. Robots are capable of producing micro-sized laser beams for otherwise difficult ap- plications too small for iron tip soldering. The company’s advanced op-
tical technology provides a reli- able solution for micro and nar- row pitched parts used in high- density electronic equipment. The laser soldering process de- pends on the type of solder to be used (wire, pre-form or paste). In the case of solder wire, laser irra- diation is performed in advance to the joint area (pre-heating).
