The advantage of void-free soldering is gained at a price: the cycle time is increased. However, the increase is only 25 seconds. This includes the 10 seconds dwell time in the vacuum chamber as well as travel phase and the periods to create the vacuum and bringing the chamber back to normal pressure. Should higher throughput be a prerogative, parallel processing could conceivably be introduced.

Void-free soldering with a new vapor-phase with vacuum technology

Voids in solder joints are largely a function of differential pressure between vapor pressure of the gases inside of the joint and environmental conditions. By entering joints still in their liquid state into decompression chambers, voids can be eliminated.

Vapour Phase - Secure Lead Free Process

Due to the switch to lead-free manufacturers are faced with multiple new challenges. Simple processing, successful soldering for various products, high quality and user-friendliness are the basic requirements that current soldering systems have to provide. Vapor phase soldering meets these demands. However, individual systems vary greatly when looking at important details

Vapour Phase Process

The modern production of electronic assemblies in SMD-technology is unthinkable without the efficient printing process, placement process and particularly the soldering technology. In particular, for a high and constant product quality the soldering technology is of utmost importance. From the start of the SMD-technology there have been two processes competing constantly with each other.
