We have just started looking at a potential laser soldering project.  We want
to reflow a small <1mm dia solder bead which is in a well. We know of companies
like Lumonics, but I understand that their stuff might be too powerful for us
(would I be correct in saying that they do 50W minimum lasers, and we would
probably be OK with more like 5W?).

I am looking for some suppliers of equipment, and would welcome any suggestions.

TIA, & regards
Peter
