Research of terminal soldering technology for auto glass heating systems

Abstract

The paper considers the issues of technology for soldering a terminal (contactor) to auto-glass heating systems for cars, i.e. technology of soldering metal to non-metal bodies. A technique for conducting an experiment measuring temperature on a setup specially designed for this system is described. The results of experimental studies using various solder compositions are presented. The optimal variants of terminal soldering technologies for auto glass heating systems are determined and presented. Purpose: Experimental study of the soldering process of the terminal to the auto-glass heating system in a specially designed soldering installation. The soldering plant is designed and built using modern computer automation tools. Methods: In the experiments, automatic control systems were used to control the load supply to the soldering irons and the pressure on them. Registration (removal of information) was carried out on the SAMKOON touch panel. Results: Experimental data were obtained that provide temperatures for the optimal soldering mode of the terminal to heating systems. Conclusion: It has been experimentally proven that to obtain the required soldering of the terminal to the auto glass base, it is necessary to create a multilayer base and use hard solder that wets the soldered layer. The temperature holding interval of the soldering iron is in the range of 161 ÷ 242 ℃. The composition and weight of the solders used in soldering were also investigated.
