wave soldering

Definition

Electronics

• A automated method of soldering electronic components to circuit boards, in which molten solder is pumped from a reservoir through a spout to form a wave. The board is passed through the wave via an inclined conveyor. This technique minimizes the heating of the board. Also called flow soldering.
