Ellsworth Expands Portfolio of Metcal Soldering Products
December 12, 2017 | Ellsworth Adhesives EuropeEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Ellsworth Adhesives Europe is pleased to announce the addition of the Metcal CV-5200 Connection Validation Soldering Station to its range of soldering products.
Manufactured with an embedded, self-regulating heater, Metcal CV-5200 has been developed to deliver the desired amount of power based on the requirements of the solder joint whilst ensuring a fast, safe and repeatable process with no calibration required.
The introduction of its Connection Validation software is an industry first - offering not only control of the tip temperature but also smooth operation in real time with closed loop feedback via a green or red light integrated into the handpiece, to indicate intermetallic compound formation.
Metcal CV-5200 is designed to deliver the right amount of power based on the requirements of the solder joint using SmartHeat technology. SmartHeat technology is built-in to all Metcal soldering systems to automatically ensure a consistent soldering iron tip temperature under a wide range of thermal loads, practically without external adjustments.
With the additional advantage of repeatability and a measurable standard to enhance the soldering process, Metcal CV-5200 complements the skill of the operator to determine the quality of the solder joint whilst ensuring an objective method of evaluating the solder joint as a whole.
A unique feature of this soldering system is its ability to evaluate the quality of the solder joint by calculating the intermetallic compound formation and offering feedback to the operator. By doing so, Connection Validation takes the risks associated with soldering out of the hands of the operator, yet assuring a good solder joint.
Branded as the next big step in soldering process control, the CV-5200 model offers the user many further advantages including improved quality and mitigated risk, enhanced process control and improved compliance. Metcal CV-5200 is particularly advantageous in the production of automotive, aerospace, military and medical device products.

Connect the Dots: Designing for Reality—The Pre-Manufacturing Process
05/08/2024 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsI have been working with Nolan Johnson on a podcast series about designing PCBs for the reality of manufacturing. By sharing lessons learned over a long career in the PCB industry, we hope to shorten learning curves and help designers produce better boards with less hassle and rework. Episode 2 deals with the electronic pre-manufacturing process. Moving from CAD (computer-aided design) to CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) is a key step in PCB manufacturing. CAM turns digital designs into instructions that machines can use to actually build the PCB.
