Abstract

See full text

A wave soldering machine includes a housing and a conveyor configured to deliver a printed circuit board through the housing. The wave soldering machine further includes a wave soldering station coupled to the housing. The wave soldering station includes a reservoir of solder material, and a wave solder nozzle assembly configured to create a solder wave. The wave solder nozzle assembly has a nozzle core frame, a solder distribution baffle secured to the nozzle core frame, and a sliding plate that together define a nozzle. The sliding plate is movable with respect to the nozzle core frame between a close proximate position in which the nozzle is configured to produce a reduced width solder wave through the solder distribution baffle and a spaced apart position in which the nozzle is configured to produce an extended width solder wave through the solder distribution baffle.
