  2. Desoldering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desoldering

    The component is removed while the solder is molten, most easily by a spring-loaded puller attached to it before heating. Otherwise all joints must be freed from solder before the component can be removed. Each joint must be heated and the solder removed from it while molten using a vacuum pump, manual desoldering pump, or desoldering braid.

  3. Soldering station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering_station

    A soldering station is a multipurpose power soldering device designed for electronic components soldering. This type of equipment is mostly used in electronics and electrical engineering . Soldering station consists of one or more soldering tools connected to the main unit, which includes the controls (temperature adjustment), means of ...

  4. Heat gun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_gun

    Example of hand held electric heat gun Commercial heat gun kit Flame heat gun for shrinkwrapping helicopter. A heat gun is a device used to emit a stream of hot air, usually at temperatures between 100 and 550 °C (373 and 823 K; 212 and 1,022 °F), with some hotter models running around 760 °C (1,030 K; 1,400 °F), which can be held by hand.

  5. Blowtorch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowtorch

    The blowtorch is commonly used where a diffuse (wide spread) high temperature naked flame heat is required but not so hot as to cause combustion or welding. Temperature applications are soldering , brazing , softening paint for removal, melting roof tar , or pre-heating large castings before welding such as for repairing.

  6. Soldering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering

    A tube of multicore electronics solder used for manual soldering. For attachment of electronic components to a PCB, proper selection and use of flux helps prevent oxidation during soldering; it is essential for good wetting and heat transfer. The soldering iron tip must be clean and pre-tinned with solder to ensure rapid heat transfer.

  7. Reflow soldering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflow_soldering

    Reflow soldering is a process in which a solder paste (a sticky mixture of powdered solder and flux) is used to temporarily attach anywhere from one to thousands of tiny electrical components to their contact pads, after which the entire assembly is subjected to controlled heat. The solder paste reflows in a molten state, creating permanent ...

  8. Soldering iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering_iron

    A soldering station has a temperature control and consists of an electrical power supply, control circuitry with provision for user adjustment of temperature and display, and a soldering iron or soldering head with a tip temperature sensor. The station will normally have a stand for the hot iron when not in use, and a wet sponge for cleaning.
