Induction Soldering connectors together

Objective Soldering two connectors simultaneously to a tin plated copper ground plate
Material Tin plated copper ground plate 4” x 1.75” (101.6mm x 44.45mm), 2 connectors, one with12 pins & one with 4 pins and 60/40 solder
Temperature 650 ºF (343 ºC)
Frequency 321 kHz
Equipment • Power of 10kW induction heating system, equipped with a remote workhead containing two 1.0μF capacitors for a total of 0.50 μF
• An induction heating coil designed and developed specifically for this application.
Process A three turn helical coil is used to heat both sets of pins simultaneously. Power is applied for less than 20 seconds
causing the solder to flow. A solder stick can be used but solder preforms work better.
Results/Benefits Induction heating provides:
• Non contact heat
• Hands-free heating that involves no operator skill for manufacturing
• Even distribution of heating
