A method for inserting preformed solder members into connector pins for use with electrical connectors. The method generally includes a connector pin having an open cavity at one end, into which a preformed solder member can be first inserted and then pressed, rather than melted, in place, such that voids and air spaces within the cavity are substantially eliminated. The method allows for inserting solder members in high quantities, where the preformed solder members are placed in a fixture and the fixture is placed on a shaker table, so that solder members can be inserted into large numbers of connector pins that are pre-installed in connector grommets, largely simultaneously.

Problem Precoating methods for previously adhering solder to areas to be soldered of a workpiece for an electronic part such as a printed circuit board, a chip part, or a wafer include the plating method, the hot leveling method, the solder paste method, the solder ball method, and the like. In these conventional precoating methods, solder did not uniformly adhere to areas to be soldered, solder did not completely adhere, and much equipment and time were required. The present invention provides a method which can perform precoating with uniform application and without the occurrence of defects using simple equipment and a workpiece to which solder is uniformly adhered. Means for Solving the Problem In the present invention, an excess amount of solder powder is dispersed atop an adhesive applied to a substrate, and then excess solder powder which is not adhered to the adhesive is removed. The surface on with solder powder is dispersed is then stacked on a workpiece to which flux is applied with the application of pressure, heating is then performed, and solder is adhered only to areas to be soldered.

A working machine for a board including a working device that selectively performs work for mounting conductive balls on a circuit board by a ball holder and work for transferring viscous fluid onto the circuit board by transfer pins, and a tray in which the viscous fluid is stored, when the conductive balls are to be mounted on the circuit board, the viscous fluid being transferred onto the circuit board by the transfer pins and the conductive balls having been immersed in the viscous fluid are mounted on the transferred viscous fluid. Accordingly, the conductive balls can be fixed onto the circuit board by the viscous fluid, which is transferred onto the circuit board by the transfer pins, and the viscous fluid that adheres to the conductive balls due to the immersion of the conductive balls in the viscous fluid.
