Soldering is used in every electrical product globally to join electrical parts together, using a mix of lead & tin (solder/flux), with an electrical soldering iron. Soldering irons are heated by an electrical element with the tip being used to heat the solder. Tips are often removable so they can be changed if damaged or worn out without replacing the whole soldering iron. Usually, the solder is applied in the kind of flux covered wire which is available in different materials & compositions intended for different makes use of. There's a giant range of soldering irons available so your choice can be determined by your budget & individual needs.
When selecting your manual soldering iron or Solder station you need to be aware of the voltage, wattage & temperature control. A higher wattage model would be better for larger joints as there is more power in reserve meaning it won't lose its heat so quickly. You can expect to pay more for higher wattage soldering irons which are temperature controlled & therefore better suited to heavy duty projects.
Rework Stations units are also available & depending on your requirements can be more beneficial. For high volumes of soldering, automated or robotic soldering stations are more cost effective & far more efficient.
It is also important not to try to move the part until the solder has cooled down. As the solder is solidifying do not be tempted to touch or rearrange the work area as this will most likely lead to a failed joint. When it's cooled the appearance of the solder surface will alter from when it was at a much higher temperature.
To make positive your soldering project goes without a hitch there's several things you need to think about. Initially you must make positive all parts of the equipment & your work area are very tidy. This so your solder is effective as any contamination will lead to the parts not bonding as they ought to. Older parts can be tricky to solder due to build-up of oxidisation. Between solder, the tip ought to always be cleaned with a sponge or cloth. All parts ought to even be the same temperature before administering the solder to assist the flow of the solder over the joint. The tip of the soldering iron needs to be as close to the necessary area as feasible to make positive the heat transfers sufficiently. The period of the application is another important factor to think about in order to prevent damage to the part. The size of the tip, the wattage & the size of the joint will all contribute to the necessary period for each individual project. The final consideration is the quantity of solder to make use of for a successful bond. small solder can lead to an unsuccessful joint requiring reworking at a later date. much solder may cause shorts circuits.
Desolder pumps & stations are also available for SMD rework purposes. A braid is used to draw up the solder from the affected area. If the joint is hard to reach or somehow difficult to remove it is sometimes necessary to initially apply more solder before desoldering the whole area.
