Induction Soldering Stainless Steel To Wire With IGBT High Frequency Heating Units
Objective Heat Stainless steel connector for soldering application inĀ automotive wire harness manufacturing
Material Stainless steel connector 1.57ā (40mm) long, 0.6ā (15mm) ODĀ & 0.4ā (10mm) thick. Lead free solder
Temperature 392 ĀŗF (200 ĀŗC)
Frequency 352 kHz
Equipment ā¢ DW-UHF-6kW induction heating system, equipped with aĀ remote workhead containing one 1 Ī¼F capacitor.
ā¢ An induction heating coil designed and developedĀ specifically for this application.
Process A two turn channel coil is used for soldering the connector toĀ the wire harness. The stainless steel connector and wireĀ harness are placed in the coil for 20 seconds for the solder to
fill just the top of the connector.
Results/Benefits Induction heating provides:
ā¢ By precisely heating the metal, the plastic shroud is notĀ directly heated
ā¢ Reduced production cost
ā¢ Faster process time, reduced production cost
ā¢ Hands-free heating that involves no operator skill forĀ manufacturing
ā¢ Even distribution of heating
