A Solderer conducts the process in which two or more metal items are joined via melting and flowing a filler metal into the joint. In this process, heat is applied to the parts to be joined, bonding the materials permanently.
A Solderer may use hand tools, typically using a soldering iron, soldering gun, a torch or a hot-air pencil. The process involves:
- cleaning the metal parts to be joined
- fitting up the joint
- heating the parts
- applying flux and filler
- removing heat and holding the assembled parts until the filler has solidified
Depending on the type of industry they are employed in, Solderer may undertake these tasks:
- operate soldering machines
- clean and maintain machines
- read and record operational information on production reports
- inspect soldered components or products to ensure compliance to the product specifications
- monitor meters, gauges and machines to ensure soldering process meets product specifications
- ensure that workplace safety standards are observed
