Hi Andy,



I think IPC has  no international standard for this type of  " setting "

temperature of your soldering iron machine.  In addition to the alloy and

the activity for core flux of soldering wire, you should also consider the

following factors when establishing your " setting" temperature of your

machine



1.  How fast to produce the solder joint ?



Typically, 2 -3 sec.  For heat-sink conmponent, longer time may be

required.



2. Is it heat sink component or only generall type of component ?



3. Any heat- sensitive component ? If yes, what is the temperature ?



4. Heat transfer capability and temperature recovery capability of your

soldering iron ?



5.  What is the size of pad ?



6. What shape and its size should be chosed ?





You can design the experiment.  Use the thermocouple to measure the change

of the temperature of the soldered area when applying the wire and

soldering tip to see what temperature acheived (+ wetting performance) when

using 2 or 3 sec as the contact time of the soldering iron.



There is the general rule but not true for all  condtions.  I list here for

your reference only.  Typically, the wetting should be acceptable if the

temperature of the solder reach above 50 deg. C over the alloy 's liqudius

point.  If the alloy's liquidius temperature  is 299 deg. C, the soldering

temperature for acceptable wetting to occur is around  350 deg. C.

However, you should also consider the " time" and " heat capability"

factor,  Therefore, for the  temperature setting at your machine, the

general rule is 100 deg. C > the soldering temperature.  In your case, 350

deg. C + 100 deg. C = 450 deg. C.



Take an other example, 63/37 alloy, the melting point is 183 deg. C.  The

soldering temperature should be 183 + 50 =  233 deg. c.  For the settting

temperature, 233 + 100 deg. C = 333 deg. C

各位朋友,

在進行手工焊接時,焊鐵頭的溫度該如何設定?

如使用的錫絲為:Kester SN10PB88AG2 #58/245,其溶融溫度為:268~299℃,那麼焊鐵頭

的溫度該設定到多少?

有哪位知道,請不吝賜教!

謝謝!

Best Regards!
