Why Solder Analysis Matters
Our in-house laboratory conducts comprehensive solder analysis to monitor critical elements like copper and lead levels. Contamination during the soldering process can disrupt solder quality, affecting the material’s characteristics and performance. Regular solder analysis ensures your solder bath maintains optimal conditions and prolongs its usability.
Recommended Solder Analysis Frequency and Temperatures
We recommend performing solder analysis every 2 to 3 months to protect your solder. For tin-lead binary alloys, maintain solder baths between 220°C and 260°C. Lead-free solder alloys require higher bath temperatures, ranging from 350°C to 400°C.
Our Process
- Verify the solder bath operates at the correct temperature.
- Collect a sample with a warm, dry ladle from the slowing wave.
- Pour the sample directly into a cold mould in a single, smooth action.
- Place the mould on a flat, level surface to solidify.
