Industrial Soldering Process Simulator

Determination of the physico-chemical interactions between liquid and solid substances is a key technological factor in many industrial processes in metallurgy, electronics or the aviation industry, where technological processes are based on soldering/brazing technologies. Understanding of the bonding process, reactions between materials and their dynamics enables to make research on new materials and joining technologies, as well as to optimise and compare the existing ones. The paper focuses on a wetting force measurement method and its practical implementation in industrial applications. Soldering simulation is a process in which simulation tools are used to model and simulate soldering processes. With simulation, different soldering methods and parameters can be tested to identify the best approach and minimize the risk of errors and failures in the real process. Soldering simulation can be used to optimize the soldering process and increase productivity, as well as to train personnel.
