In a solder processing device (A) which includes: a substantially tubular iron tip (5) that can be heated and that is extended vertically; and a solder piece supply portion (2, 6) that supplies a solder piece (Wh) from above into the iron tip (5), and in which the heat of the iron tip (5) is used to melt the solder piece (Wh) such that the molten solder is supplied downward, the supplied solder piece (Wh) is forcefully brought into contact with the inner wall of the iron tip (5). In this way, it is possible to more reliably heat and melt the solder piece (Wh) by use of the heat of the iron tip (5).

An electric heating device includes a body and a heating head connected to the body. The heating head includes an electric heating wire and a heat storage member. The electric heating wire includes a first section and a second section connected to the first section. The first section is made of pure nickel. The second section is made of ferrochrome. The heat storage member is mounted around an outer radial periphery of the second section. The heat storage member is made of porcelain clay. The electric heating wire is connected by sections of three different materials so that the heating head can be raised to a very high temperature with extremely high heat generation efficiency, and the electric heating device is not easily damaged by high temperature.

The present invention provides a soldering iron with a tip having two separate halves that are electrically isolated from one another. When both halves of the tip are applied to an electrically conductive material, such as the material to be soldered, an electrical circuit between the tip halves and an electrical power source is completed. Therefore, the tip can reach operating temperatures quickly. When the tip is removed from the joint, the electrical circuit is broken and the tip material may quickly cool to a temperature safe for human contact. The tip material permits higher power outputs than other battery operated portable soldering irons and heat and cools faster the conventional soldering tips.
