What are the methods of cleaning the soldering iron head
1. Manual cleaning of soldering iron tip
1. If the sponge water is too much when cleaning the soldering iron tip, the temperature of the soldering iron will drop rapidly, and the tin slag will not fall off easily. When the water is insufficient, the sponge will be burned. The principle of cleaning: When the water content is appropriate, the moment the tip of the soldering iron touches, the water will boil and fluctuate to achieve the purpose of cleaning.
2. The tip of the soldering iron must have residual tin evenly, so that the tin will bear part of the heat and ensure that the tip of the soldering iron is not oxidized by the air, which is good for prolonging the life of the soldering iron. When the power is turned off without leaving any remaining tin, the temperature will drop slowly, thermal oxidation will occur and the life of the soldering iron will be shortened
2. Use a soldering iron tip cleaner
1. Cleaning the tip of the soldering iron is simple and convenient. Many cleaners have anti-static function (without grounding wire, 0 silent design, energy saving, only 5W power consumption (with AC adapter)
2. To prevent solder splashing, the inner seal design can avoid solder splashing everywhere when cleaning the soldering iron tip, effectively reducing the production scrap rate; all cleaning actions are sealed inside to prevent solder spattering.
3. Reduce the temperature drop of the soldering iron tip. The cleaning brush does not need to be used with water. It can reduce the temperature drop of the soldering tip during cleaning, so that the soldering iron tip can always maintain high working efficiency.
Cleaning the tip of the soldering iron is a very simple thing, but it is difficult to persist. It is necessary to develop a good habit. Only in this way, our soldering iron tip will be more usable and the life of the soldering iron tip will be longer!
