Induction Soldering Copper Wire Connectors

Objective The objective of this application test is to determine heating times for induction soldering copper wire connectors onto a copper coaxial cable. The customer would like to replace hand soldering with soldering irons, with induction soldering. Hand soldering can be labor intensive, and the resulting solder joint is highly dependent on the skill of the operator. Induction soldering allows finite process control, and provides a consistent result.

Equipment DW-UHF-6KW-III handheld induction brazing heater Materials • Copper coaxial cable • Plated copper connectors • Copper bullet-shaped internal connector • Copper pin-shaped internal connector • Solder wire • Carbon steel

Test 1: Soldering Copper Coax Center Conductor to Bullet-Shaped Center Pin Key Parameters Temperature: ~400°F (204°C) Power: 1.32 kW Time: 3 seconds for bullet connector

Test 2: Soldering Copper Coax center conductor to Needle-Shaped Center Pin Key Parameters Temperature: ~400°F (204°C) Power: 1.32 kW Time: 1.5 second for needle connector

Test 3: Soldering Copper Coax to the End Connector (Bullet-Shaped Center Pin) Key Parameters Temperature: ~400°F (204°C) Power: 1.8 kW Time: 30 seconds of heating time, followed by a 10 second cooling cycle

Test 4: Soldering Copper Coax to the End Connector (Needle-Shaped Center Pin) Key Parameters Temperature: ~400°F (204°C) Time: 30 seconds of heating time, followed by a 10 second cooling cycle

Process: For each type of center pin, the soldering process has two steps. First, soldering the center pin (bullet-shaped or needle-shaped) to the center conductor of the coaxial cable; and second, soldering the coaxial cable with the pin into the end connector Tests 1 and 2: Soldering copper coax center conductor to the connector center pin

1. The internal connector pin (needle and bullet followed the same process) were assembled to the coaxial cable center conductor. A solder slug roughly ½ the length of the pin where the wire is to be soldered, was cut and placed in the receiving end of the center pin. The copper conductor of the coax was positioned to rest on the solder slug in the pin with light pressure downward.
2. The assembly was placed into a two-turn induction coil, and power was turned on.
3. As the solder melted, the copper conductor of the coax seated into the center pin. The assembly was held still for several more seconds as the solder cooled. Note: it is important to keep the solder joint still until it has cooled. If movement occurs, a “cold” solder joint can result.

Tests 3 and 4: Soldering copper screw-type end connector to the Center Pin

1. Solder wire was wound around the corrugated flutes of the coax. The coax with solder was placed into the end connector.
2. The assembly was placed into a u-shaped induction coil, and power was turned on.
3. Heat time – 30 seconds for either assembly followed by a 10 second hold to let the alloy solidify.

Results/Benefits: The soldering was successful, and confirmed that induction soldering copper wire connectors is an excellent alternative to hand soldering.

• Precise control of the time and temperature
• Power on demand with rapid heat cycles
• Repeatable process, not operator dependent
• Safe heating with no open flames
• Energy efficient heating

Induction Soldering Copper Pipes to PCB Board

Objective: Test –Induction Soldering Copper Pipes to PCB Board Industry: Medical & Dental Materials: Flat copper pipes, PCB board Alloy: Low-temperature solder paste

Equipment: DW-UHF-6KW-I Handheld Induction Heater Power: 1.88 kW Time: 15 secs. Coil: Coated custom-made coil. The Process: HLQ was contacted by a leading manufacturer of clinical diagnostic equipment who is striving to drive innovation in the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technology. The flat pipes, featured in this heating application, are used to transfer heat with minimal temperature difference or spread the heat across a surface. Our induction heating solution helped the client to cut manufacturing time which previously took 1 hour to produce 16 soldered copper heat pipes. The DW-UHF-6KW-I handheld induction heating power supply along with a heat station successfully performed the soldering process in approximately 15 seconds. We also used one of our custom-made induction coils with cement coasting to ensure that the coil will not suffer mechanical damage. To perform the test, we positioned the induction soldering copper pipes onto two flat pads containing low-temperature solder paste. Induction heating ensures complete repeatability. There is a significant reduction in cycle time and increased efficiency as now multiple parts can be soldered simultaneously.
