Precise thermode and bar soldering for the highest quality and reproduction requirements
EUTECT thermode soldering or bar soldering is the only system in the world with a definable, µ-precise penetration path and enables the reliable soldering of flexible foils, cable strands and ribbon cables through to defined SMD components. This achieves high quality results and reproducibility.
Thanks to intelligent control of force, temperature and penetration path, the thermode or iron soldering system can be flexibly integrated both as a stand-alone solution and in automated production lines. This enables you to achieve short set-up times, high energy efficiency and seamless documentation of your soldering processes, ideal for modern electronics production with the highest standards of reliability and cost-effectiveness.
Precise heat input, controlled force, reproducible quality
Thermode soldering is a high-precision, selective contact soldering process for sophisticated assemblies in electronics production. At the centre of the process is a heated thermode, which is placed on the solder joint at a precisely defined temperature. The direct contact ensures that the necessary thermal energy is introduced into the joining zone in a targeted manner. The solder melts in a controlled manner, wets the contact surfaces and, after cooling, forms a reliable, mechanically stable and electrically conductive connection.
The thermode soldering process at EUTECT is based on three precisely controlled core parameters:
- Precise temperature control: The thermode is heated to a precisely defined temperature. The heat is only applied where it is needed.
- Controlled contact pressure: A precisely defined force is applied during the soldering process.
- Micrometre-precise penetration path: A key advantage of the EUTECT systems is the micrometre-precise controllable penetration path. This means that the contact between the thermode and the component is controlled with high precision.
All parameters are controlled, monitored and documented via a central HMI. This enables maximum process stability and complete traceability, particularly for applications in the automotive, medtech, industrial electronics and high-reliability sectors.

EUTECT kinematics - the right automation for your assembly
As part of a structured evaluation, we select the appropriate kinematics and automation modules together with the customer. Decisive factors here are the respective assembly requirements, desired cycle times and the planned production volume.
Depending on the task, different combinations of cells, handling systems and process modules can be realised. This modular diversity enables customised solutions that go far beyond standard systems and are tailored to the customer's requirements down to the last detail. Based on these automation options and in conjunction with the EUTECT in-house software, highly efficient, customised machine solutions with high process control and reproducible quality are created. Thanks to the versatile combination options, EUTECT develops automation concepts that precisely match the customer's target values, from maximum flexibility for product changes to high output and stable series production.
