Abstract

Abstract To ensure good pressure distribution to the individual conductor pairs to be solder-joined when effecting infrared-light soldering of a set of conductors on a flexible infrared-pervious substrate to a second set of conductors on a second substrate, a strip-type focussed infra-red source is equipped with a pressure pad which is pivotally supported by trunnions resting on pressure application spring bars, and which consist of a quartz bar fitted at its pressure-transmission face with a pressure-distribution pad made of SYLGARD 182 silicone resin, a material which has a high infra-red transmission combined with good resilience and temperature resistance.
