Micro Laser Soldering System

[p1oooop]

this makes me cream my pants...

I think work needs to buy me one of these, for you know, 0402 stuff, and definitely not just etching my name onto the side of components.......

Lol, I just thought of this today, for affordable hobby or small production scara CNC router with solder paste tool, vision pick and place and laser soldering.

does anyone thing something like this could be made from say a dvd or cd burner laser and appropriate power supply? what is the manometer range for laser soldering?

[sk8rked]

SO PERFECT

[IblesjunkieMrMcCoy]

Motherfuckers stole my idea! Too bad I don't have access to lasers that powerful at prices I can afford.

[KeithWasHere1]

@IblesjunkieMrMcCoy have you tried the 445nm 1 watt blue lasers from the casio cxj-a140 dlp projector?...those things are awesome!

Wow something new and nice to add to a self-made CNC.

Thanks Subaru!

The subtext in the video mentions temperature Control done by :

a.) metering radiation pyrometer

b.) Infrared thermometer

c.) volume / size / power / time calculation -> no feed back control

?

brilliant. but.. subaru? i dint think they were into optics like this. I want one!

[MrKrayziepop]

You take a multilayer pcb with an exceptionally thick ground plane, and this would blow away ERSA or jade soldering by far. For that matter, in the case of fine pitch soldering, especially on a lead free assembly, this would do what cannot currently be done with either of those methods. I like this!

this is porn for geeks.

[bahstrike]

i just want the laser

[icedup4u]

Are those pins bring crossed by the solder or is that just flux? Yeah its fast and precise, especially at those minute sizes, but I think there might be too much solder

wow i can do a much better job with a single sided chisel on an iron
