PTH Hand Solder
Category: Plated Through Hole
Description: The PTH Hand Solder process involves a skilled operator using a soldering iron to make circuit connections. This is typically used only for rework or for very small production quantities. Hand soldering is sometimes used following wave soldering to add delicate components that would be damaged in the harsh environment of the wave soldering chamber.
Process is optional and is turned OFF by default.
 
Major Cost Drivers -- PCBA PTH Hand Solder
PTH Hand Solder Cycle Time is a product of the number of the leads by the rate of hand soldering.
Process Time = (Hand Solder PTH Leads Quantity)*(Hand Solder PTH Leads Time)
Hand Solder PTH Leads Quantity = (PSO)
Hand Solder PTH Leads Time = (Machine variable)
