Induction Soldering Brass Connector

Induction Soldering Brass Connector In Solar Panel With IGBT Induction Heater

Objective Solder three brass connectors one at a time in a solar panelĀ junction box without affecting the components in the junctionĀ box
Material Solar panel junction box, brass connectors, solder wire
Temperature 700 ĀŗF (371 ĀŗC)
Frequency 344 kHz
Equipment ā€¢ DW-UHF-6Ā kW induction heating system, equipped with aĀ remote workhead containing one 1.0 Ī¼F capacitor.
ā€¢ An induction heating coil designed and developedĀ specifically for this application.
Process A three turn oval shaped helical coil is used to heat theĀ connectors. A piece of solder wire is placed onto the joint areaĀ and each joint is heated separately for 5 seconds to solder theĀ connector. The total process time is 15 seconds for the threeĀ joints.
Results/Benefits Induction heating provides:
ā€¢ Pinpoint accuracy deliver heating only to joint; does notĀ affect surrounding components
ā€¢ Localized heat produces neat and clean joints
ā€¢ Produces high quality, repeatable results
ā€¢ Even distribution of heating

Induction Soldering Brass Heating Exchanger

Induction Soldering Brass Heating Exchanger Of a Series Copper PipeĀ 

Objective To solder a brass end cap to a series of copper tubes
Material Preassembled heat exchanger with copper tubes and 2 brassĀ end caps 2.36ā€ (60mm) OD, 0.08ā€ to 0.12ā€ (2 to 3mm) thick atĀ both ends, liquid solder
Temperature 302ĀŗF (150ĀŗC)
482ĀŗF (250ĀŗC)
Frequency 237kHz
Equipment ā€¢ DW-UHF-20kW induction heating system, equipped with aĀ remote workhead containing one 1.0Ī¼F capacitor
ā€¢ An induction heating coil designed and developedĀ specifically for this application.
Process A dual four turn pancake coil is used to solder 2 brass caps perĀ cycle. Liquid solder is squirted onto the end cap and is heatedĀ for 18 seconds at 302ĀŗF (150ĀŗC) to burn off the flux. Then the
heat is increased to 482ĀŗF (250ĀŗC) for 15 seconds to solder theĀ parts.
Results
Induction heating provides:
ā€¢ Even distribution of heating
ā€¢ Compared to hot plate, induction heating is able to heat twoĀ parts in 30 seconds vs. one part in 60 seconds
ā€¢ Increased production
ā€¢ No discoloration with the slow heating process

Induction Soldering Brass Tube-Pipe

Induction Soldering Brass Tube-Pipe-Tubing With RF Soldering Heating System

Objective: Soldering two brass tubes measuring 3/4″ and 1/4″ together for use as cellularĀ phone antennas. The lengths of tubes range from four (4) feet to twelve (12)Ā feet, and must be soldered along the axial side. The joint is to be made usingĀ 60/40 Tin Lead Solder and Kestor Rosin paste flux.
Material: Brass Tubes measuring 3/4″ and 1/4″Ā 60/40 Tin Lead Solder
Kestor Rosin Flux
Temperature: 3750F
Application: Through the use of the the DW-UHF-40KW output solid state inductionĀ power supply along with a unique five (5) turn 12″ long channel coil, the followingĀ results were achieved:
3750 F was reached and the solder flowed after a heating period of 35Ā seconds.
A production rate of 24″ per minute was determined to be adequate.
A quality solder fillet was observed after heating and cooling
Equipment: DW-UHF-40kW output solid state induction power supply includingĀ one (1) remote heat station containing two (2) capacitors, and a unique fiveĀ (5) turn channel coil made from 3/16″ copper tubing and measuring 1 1/4″ byĀ 12″.
Frequency: 385 kHz

Induction Soldering Brass Rings

Induction Soldering Brass Rings With High Frequency IGBT Induction Heater

Objective: To heat 1 3/4″, 3″ and 6″ diameter brass slip rings and a sheathed copper wireĀ assembly to 3600 F for soldering within three (3) to six (6) seconds. CurrentlyĀ production is accomplished by using a soldering iron and stick feeding rosinĀ cored solder. This process leaves unwanted solder on the side of the slip ringĀ where the soldering iron makes contact. The customer would like to see anĀ increase in joint quality without sacrificing time.
Material: 303 Brass Slip Rings of 1 3/4″, 3″ and 6″ diameters.Ā Sheathed Copper Wire Assembly.
Resin Core Solder, 37% Pb, 63% Sn.
Temperature: 3750F
Application: Through laboratory testing, the DW-UHF-20kW output solid stateĀ induction power supply along with a unique four (4) turn “ear muff” type coilĀ produced the following results:
Times to reach 3750 F are as listed below:
– 1 3/4″ in 3 seconds
– 3″ in 3-4 seconds
– 6″ in 5 seconds
Adequate solder flow was observed producing a clean joint.
Solder preforms are recommended to speed up production.
Side loading was facilitated by the unique four (4) turn “ear muff” styleĀ coil.
Equipment: DW-UHF-20kW output solid state induction power supply includingĀ one (1) remote heat station containing one (1) 1.0 Ī¼Fcapacitor, a 4-20mAĀ input for fast ramp simulation, and a unique four (4) turn “ear muff” style coil.
