Soldering is accomplished by quickly heating the metal parts to be joined, and
then applying a flux and a solder to the mating surfaces. The finished
solder joint metallurgically bonds the parts - forming an excellent
electrical connection between wires and a strong mechanical joint
between the metal parts. Heat is supplied with a soldering iron or
other means. The flux is a chemical cleaner which prepares the hot
surfaces for the molten solder. The solder is a low melting point alloy
of non ferrous metals.
1. Always keep the tip coated with a thin layer of solder.
2. Use fluxes as mild as possible but still provide a strong solder joint.
3. Keep temperature as low as possible while maintaining enough
temperature
to quickly solder a joint (2 to 3 seconds maximum for
electronic soldering).
4. Use a tip with the shortest reach possible for maximum efficiency.
5. Match the tips size to the work.
Summary
Operator
training and experience will, over time, provide the consistency needed
for excellent hand soldering results. Part of the training includes a
proper understanding of solder characteristics, how a soldering iron
works, how to maintain tips, correct techniques, recognizing good
solder joints, and potential problems.
