Ladies and Gents: There have been several ways discussed in the trade press and in papers re: how to separate/keep separate Sn63 and l-f hand soldering tools and materials. Some claim completely separate hand soldering tools are required while others claim that separate tips are sufficient in segregating the processes. Other larger companies have completely dedicated mfg lines dedicated to l-f mfg and hence the hand soldering tools are separated with respect to floor space. Does anyone have these or other practical experiences on what works the best?
