Category: Plated Through Hole
Description: Wave Solder is the process for bulk soldering Plated Through Hole (PTH) printed circuit boards, by passing them over a pan of molten solder in which a pump produces an upwelling of solder that looks like a standing wave.
(For Surface Mount PCAs, see Reflow.)
Major Cost Drivers -- PCBA Wave Solder
Cycle Time = Process Length / Conveyor Speed
- Process Length = (Machine variable)
- Conveyor Speed = (Machine variable)
