The electricity heats the thermode face to a predetermined temperature.
Hot bar soldering.
The concept for hot bar reflow soldering is quite simple.
Hot bar reflow soldering is a selective soldering process where two pre fluxed solder coated parts are heated using a heating element called a thermode or a hot bar to a sufficient temperature to melt the solder.
Hot bar soldering in this method resistance soldering a heated stamp also cal led bar or thermode is pressing with an adjustable programmable force on the two parts to be joined one lying on top of the other.
The parts are then cooled below the solidification temperature to form a permanent electro mechanical bond.
3 layouts for hot bar reflow soldering.
Low voltage high amperage electricity is run through a metallic thermode that is designed to have higher electrical resistance along the soldering face.
