What's the mesh belt applied in reflow soldering?

As a welding process, reflow welding refers to the welding of electronic components to the SMT circuit board.

During the process of reflow soldering, the circuit board is transferred to the welding areas such as preheating, melting solder, and cooling through the metal mesh belt, to complete the welding of the circuit board.

 

Features of the mesh belt applied in reflow soldering.

High operating stability

If the operation of mesh belts is unstable, it will lead to possible problems such as shifting and jitter in the transmission process of the circuit board, which directly affects the welding quality and output.

Therefore, in order to ensure the normal operation and welding quality, we need to select mesh belts with high operating stability. Widely used mesh belts are DDK2 Belt and BL Belt.

Permeability

In order to ensure that the components on the circuit board are fully heated during the welding process, the mesh belt needs to have a certain degree of permeability, so that hot air can act on the circuit board through the mesh belt.

Abrasion performance

During the process of reflow soldering, the mesh belt needs to withstand the weight and friction of the circuit board. Therefore, it must have good abrasion performance to maintain a long service life.

DDK2 Belt is made of special material Hardy-2, which can strengthen the tensile strength and extend the service life of mesh belts.


How to select and use the mesh belt applied in reflow soldering?

High stability and high accuracy of mesh belts

To select the mesh belt with high stability and high accuracy to ensure the normal transportation of the circuit board.

DDK2 Belt here shows a unique advantage: driven by the special sprockets, it can operate more stably, and there will be no shaking and other adverse conditions.

Professional ability in the installation and commissioning of mesh belts for manufacturers

Because DDK2 Belt is driven by special sprockets, the professional ability in the installation and commissioning of mesh belts is required.

Appropriate operating speed and carrying capacity

It is necessary to reasonably control the operating speed and carrying capacity of the mesh belt, to avoid operating too fast or overloading, in order to ensure the operating stability and welding quality of the circuit board.

Proper use and maintenance

We need to follow the operating guidelines and recommendations of the mesh belt manufacturer to ensure the correct use and maintenance of the mesh belt.

 

In summary, the mesh belt, as an important part of the reflow welding device, directly affects the welding quality of SMT circuit board.

At the same time, we also hope that high-quality of mesh belts applied in reflow welding can further improve the efficiency and quality of SMT production lines.
