Weller Introduces WXsmart Tweezers for the Wxsmart Soldering Platform
April 25, 2023 | WellerEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Weller Tools, a leader in hand soldering solutions and part of the Apex Tool Group, introduced its new WXsmart Tweezers for the WXsmart Soldering Platform. WXsmart Tweezers are designed to meet all state-of-the-art soldering and desoldering requirements, from miniaturization to heavy duty applications, as well as traceability and connectivity needs.
Precise and fast performance with built-in intelligence in tips and tool make the tweezers a reliable companion for all soldering tasks. Smooth workflows are facilitated by the optimized ergonomics of the tweezers. Additionally, the WXsmart Tweezers feature color lighting for fast tool identification. Handling also is improved with fast, toolless tip change with the highest precision for fast and continuous working processes.
PERFORMANCE – High Power, extremely fast heat-up and reaction times for increased productivity.
PRECISION – Perfectly adjusted tips save time by producing the best results.
SMART – The integrated chip controls the workflow and makes adjustments possible.
ERGONOMICS – The optimized handle ergonomics provide support for repetitive, identical work processes and make work easier.
WXMTS Micro Tweezers for WXsmart
The Intelligent/Smart De-Soldering Tweezer is the perfect solution for fast and precise SMD rework of chip components and small / medium SOP from PCB assemblies (supports usage under the microscope).
WXUTS Ultra Tweezers for WXsmart
The Smart De-Soldering Tweezer for Heavy Duty Applications is designed to solder and desolder SMDs such as QFP, PLCC and SOIC.
The WXsmart Tweezers feature improved ergonomics with the new soft grip design. The short-distance tip-to-grip and parallel sliding block ensure greater accuracy and comfort when working. The pre-adjusted pairwise tip design increases productivity as they are immediately ready to use.
