SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING FLOW OF SOLDER IN A WAVE SOLDERING MACHINE
20250133664 · 2025-04-24 ·

A wave soldering machine is configured to perform a wave soldering operation on a printed circuit board. The wave soldering machine includes a housing and a conveyor coupled to the housing. The conveyor is configured to deliver a printed circuit board through the housing. The wave soldering machine further includes a wave soldering station coupled to the housing. The wave soldering station includes a solder pot having a reservoir of solder material, a flow duct positioned in the reservoir of the solder pot, and a wave soldering nozzle assembly coupled to the flow duct. The wave soldering nozzle assembly has a solder distribution baffle configured to create a solder wave. The wave soldering nozzle assembly is configured to control a width of the solder wave through the solder distribution baffle to produce a maximum width solder wave and a minimum width solder wave.

Solder supply unit, solder piece manufacturing device, part mounting device, and production system

A solder supply unit able to be attached to a solder cutting unit and is able to detached is provided. The solder supply unit includes a reel holder rotatably holding a reel of a tape-like solder material; and a guidance member guiding the tape-like solder material wound around the reel when the tape-like solder material is fed out. The guidance member includes an extension portion guiding a lower surface of the tape-like solder material along a feeding direction of the tape-like solider material; and an opening penetrating the extension portion in an up-down direction and extending toward an upstream side in the feeding direction from a downstream end of the guidance member. The opening is formed in the predetermined length in the feeding direction so that a holding member, which holds the tape-like solder material together with another holding member, is able to move in the feeding direction.
