Cable assembly
Wide range of fluxes

As a developer and producer of fluxes for electronics production, we also offer a wide range of fluxes for cable assembly, especially for the strand tinning process. The aim when using a flux is to achieve uniformly good tinning using leaded or lead-free solders. It must be possible to control the tinning process so that only a defined length of the strand is tinned.

Any flux residue must not have any effect on the subsequent use of the end product, for example due to corrosion or low surface electrical resistance (SIR). Furthermore, it is important that the flux used does not penetrate the cable and strand sheathing, as otherwise the strands and wires could corrode. Furthermore, the cable sheathing may be damaged in this case.

The fluxes must meet the temperature requirements of the respective process. If the solder bath is run at higher temperatures, the fluxes must remain active. This is particularly important if the strand coatings are "burned off" during the soldering process.
