Thermaltronics to Launch Two New Solder Robots at productronica 2019
October 29, 2019 | Thermaltronics USA, Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Thermaltronics USA, Inc. will exhibit in Hall 4, Stand A305 at productronica, scheduled to take place Nov. 12-15, 2019 at the Neue Messe München in Munich, Germany. In addition to the award-winning TMT-R9800S Advanced Solder Robot System, Thermaltronics will launch two new additions to its product range.
A single-head soldering robot, the new TMT-R8000S Solder Robot System is designed for simplified soldering applications. The new TMT-9900S Inline Soldering Robot System has been designed for those companies wishing to incorporate the system into an SMT production line where precision soldering is key.
Both systems will include vision/mapping and dynamic laser height control, and will incorporate the same IP software used on the company’s successful benchtop system.
Thermaltronics believes these three systems will provide companies with the best options when seeking to automate their hand soldering processes. A spokesperson for Thermaltronics stated that using precision components and industry-leading software maximize yield rates.
In addition to automated soldering systems, Thermaltronics will exhibit a new dual port operating TMT-2200S soldering system with USB port for future data collection. This new soldering system also features a high-power capability that enables companies to handle the most challenging solder operations.
Thermaltronics also provides an extended range of accessories to support both production and rework applications. Customers who wish to run free of charge trials on Thermaltronics' hand soldering products are encouraged to contact info@thermaltronics.com.

Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
12/13/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007This week, Peter Tranitz discusses the upcoming Pan-European Electronics Design Conference, set for Jan. 29-30 in Vienna, Austria. Pete Starkey brings us a review of the most recent EIPC Technical Snapshot webinar, which featured a global PCB maker update by Dr. Hayao Nakahara. Don't miss our interview with Manfred Huschka, who explains how companies can begin their own China Plus One plan. Stan Farnsworth breaks down photonic soldering and discusses its use in soldering materials that are not typically compatible. I also enjoyed Dan Beaulieu’s discussion on the value of consistency, and why just showing up for work is half the battle, especially in an inconsistent, evolving industry like ours.
Advancing Photonic Soldering
