What is the process flow for producing soldering iron tips?
Release Date：2018-04-17
1、 The production process of soldering iron tips mainly consists of nine steps: 1. Straightening: The finished copper purchased is usually a large roll, which requires straightening it. Straightening is the beginning of producing soldering iron tips, and you need to straighten it very straight, otherwise it will seriously affect product quality. If it is not done well at the beginning, can it still be done well later? 2. Cutting: Cut into the appropriate size according to your own needs. 3. Head turning: The precision of the lathe operator determines the appearance of the soldering iron tip. In addition to the industry standard model products, some factories also accept customized products based on customer samples and drawings. 4. Polishing and degreasing: Vibration polishing machine polishes and removes burrs from the turning head. 5. Iron plating: This is the key to the quality of the soldering iron tip. The quality of the soldering iron tip depends on this process, and the core technology of all soldering iron tips lies in this. In order to improve products, it is no longer simply iron plating, but all electroplating iron alloys. The ratio of additives during the electroplating process is also an extremely important factor in determining the quality of soldering iron tips, and each factory has its own exclusive formula. 6. Correction: The material after iron plating often undergoes deformation and needs to be corrected to the required size. 7. Polishing: for electroplating outer layer services. 8. Tin plating: Pre tin plating is for the use of soldering iron tips. 9. Outer layer electroplating: generally includes white chromium plating (displayed as silver white), nickel chromium plating (displayed as bright color), and black chromium plating (displayed as black). No matter what color it is plated with, it cannot do without chromium, the purpose is to prevent tin crawling. After the above nine steps, the production of the soldering iron tip is basically completed.
