ABSTRACT:
An inert atmosphere spot soldering process and apparatus uses cups arranged to match the arrangement of the terminals to be soldered. The cups are filled to over flowing with liquid solder and provided with a enveloping flow of hot inert gas. The terminals and their surrounding area are exposed to the hot inert gas for a period sufficient to drive off substantially all volatile liquids and the terminals are then immersed in the solder. After immersion, the terminals are raised gently non parallel to the solder surface until they are above the solder and then the flow of inert gas is terminated permitting the solder to solidify. The inert gas may be heated by thermal conduction from the liquid solder.
