Before we decide between the two, let's take a look at its capabilities and see how a soldering station or soldering iron works in different situations.
Soldering Stations:
Soldering Station It is a kind of soldering equipment that can be used to solder electronic components. The soldering station is composed of a host, welding tools and accessories. The welding tool can be connected to the host of the soldering station, and the host has a temperature adjustment knob, a power switch, an indicator light, a soldering iron handle interface, and a color display (always monitoring the welding process. data), etc.
Advantages: The composition of the soldering station: console, handle (composed of insulating material, heating core and soldering iron head), soldering iron frame.
The temperature of the soldering station can be adjusted according to the item being soldered, the temperature is controllable, and it has a temperature display, which is simple and clear.
Soldering iron: Electric soldering iron is an essential tool for electronic production and electrical maintenance. And tin-absorbing electric soldering irons are divided into high-power electric soldering irons and low-power electric soldering irons according to different uses. The alternating current is applied to both ends of the soldering iron core through the power cord. Since the soldering iron core is a kind of heating resistance wire, it can directly convert the electric energy into heat energy, and then conduct the heat energy to the soldering iron head through the conduction of heat, which can be used after heating. to weld.
Advantages: The soldering iron is small in size and easy to operate. Plug in the power supply and wait for the temperature to rise to debug and use, which is convenient and fast.
How to choose a soldering station and a soldering iron?
When choosing a soldering station or soldering iron, it is important to first determine the purpose and level of use. There is no right answer as the type of tool required depends on the user and the project being executed.
The soldering station is an upgraded version of the basic soldering iron. If you use a soldering iron a lot or have a lot of soldering projects, we recommend this soldering station instead of a soldering iron. Don't buy a soldering iron, because the use of soldering irons is more limited, and soldering irons are more suitable for small projects and occasional soldering irons. But the soldering station is different, it offers more flexibility and makes soldering easier and safer. The main feature of the soldering station is temperature regulation. We can choose the right temperature for the product we are welding, which will make our welding more efficient.
The choice of soldering station is also very important. For example, the AiXun t420D dual-station intelligent soldering station we just developed is compatible with T210, T245, and T115 three handles to meet different welding needs. It heats up quickly, and it only takes 1 second to heat up to 350°C, saving time and effort. The temperature control is stable and intelligent, and the temperature accuracy deviation is less than 1%. The two handles can work together, which is convenient and improves work efficiency. The anti-interference and anti-static design conforms to industry ESD standards. Large high-definition LCD screen, better visual experience, temperature at a glance. It is a necessary repair welding tool for mobile phone repair and maintenance. Owning a good soldering station will stay with you for years and will create more value for you.
