Thermaltronics to Demo Best-in-Class Robotic Soldering Systems at the SMTA Tampa Bay Expo
September 7, 2021 | ThermaltronicsEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Thermaltronics USA, Inc. announces that it will exhibit at the SMTA Tampa Expo & Tech Forum, scheduled to take place Tuesday, October 5, 2021 in Tampa Bay, Florida. Thermaltronics will highlight the TMT-2200S – “simultaneous” dual port operating solder station, TMT-R8000S Solder Robot and TMT-R9900S Inline Robot Soldering System.
The TMT-2200S is based on Curie Heat Technology which responds to the thermal demands of each solder joint by adjusting the power instantaneously, thereby meeting the exact requirements of the substrate component and solder material. The TMT-2200S has two operating modes. It can provide dual port simultaneous soldering or, by combining the power of the two ports, it can deliver superior power and performance, to meet the most demanding soldering applications. Maximum flexibility allows the use of K, P and S Series tips for standard operating modes and KD series for those heavy-duty applications.
The single-head TMT-R8000S Solder Robot System, is designed for simplified soldering applications but still includes vision/mapping, fiducial marks and dynamic laser height control and incorporates the same IP software used on the company’s successful benchtop system. It also includes a separate drive motor, which allows for adjustment solder wire feeder, a feature under patent application.
The TMT-R9900S functions as an inline or stand-alone production system and is equipped with full vision to verify the procedure being undertaken and does not simply follow a pre-determined program. In this respect it has an observation mode, a verification mode and as a result – a decision making capability.
This equipment is autonomously capable of collecting and utilizing data for production processing, which is one of the most important factors necessary to meet the requirements of Industry 4.0 standards.
In addition to the hand soldering product line, Thermaltronics also provides an extended range of accessories to support both production and rework applications.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Gold Mitigation for Class 2 Electronics
05/07/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileIn electronic assemblies, the integrity of connections between components is paramount for ensuring reliability and performance. Gold embrittlement and dissolution are two critical phenomena that can compromise this integrity. Gold embrittlement occurs when gold diffuses into solder joints or alloys, resulting in mechanical brittleness and an increased susceptibility to cracking. Conversely, gold dissolution involves the melting away of gold into solder or metal matrices, potentially altering the electrical and mechanical properties of the joint.
