Kaisertech supplied the equipment, which includes JBC’s DMPSE 4 rework station with a desoldering module.
“The station [right] enables a user to operate four tools simultaneously,” according to ART. “Stackable modules help to conserve workspace, and a selection of compatible tools provide flexibility across multiple soldering and rework applications. JBC boasts well over 500 different shapes and tip geometries to choose from.”
Soldering and rework tools for small surface-mount devices and high power ground plane soldering were also supplied by Kaisertech.
For heat management, each JBC stand can detect when its tool has been replaces and enter sleep or hibernation – the aim is to extend tip life.
“We maintain close relationships with tool vendors to ensure that out trainees have access to the latest technology, to maximise their productivity and ensure the highest quality work,” said ART MD Debbie Wade.
Established in 1988, ART is based in Witham Essex and trains people in in hand soldering and PCB rework from military, medical, aviation, aerospace and automotive companies around the world.
“We are one of a small number of fully accredited IPC certification centres worldwide that can offer certified IPC training to all programs, including space and military addendums, to all IPC standards”, it said.
It also offers consultancy, inspection plans and auditing services.
