This company recently announced the addition of the Metcal CV-5200 Connection Validation™ soldering station to its range of soldering products. Manufactured with an embedded, self-regulating heater, the station has reportedly been developed to deliver the desired amount of power based on the requirements of the solder joint while ensuring a fast, safe and repeatable process with no calibration required.
The introduction of its Connection Validation software offers control of the tip temperature and smooth operation in real-time, with closed loop feedback via a green or red light integrated into the handpiece, to indicate intermetallic compound formation.
