ACE Production Technologies - Selective Soldering Systems

"The system works in conjunction with pallets that hold the components in a known position through the process. Under program control a pallet of components moves to the central flux station where the component leads are immersed to a specific depth. The pallet then moves to the first solder pot (scavenging pot) where the component leads are dipped into the solder alloy and "scrubbed" to remove the existing coating.

The pallet returns to the flux station where the leads are once again fluxed then to the second solder pot for the final dip of fresh alloy creating a homogenous intermetalic coating. The pallet holder and pallets accept a wide variety of components such as axials, connectors, DIPs, QFPs and virtually all leaded devices making the system very versatile with minimal change over time."
