Application Overview
Purpose
A fixture for soldering PC board.
Points for use
Operating procedure
The PC board is held down by the fixtures cover.
User can perform soldering work on the first side of the PC board.
After soldering the first side, lift up the cover, then remove and refit the PC board to its opposite side.
Fold down the fixture cover again and begin soldering work on the 2nd side of the PC board.
Target workpiece
PC board
Dims.: W70 x D45 x t1 (Also compatible with PCB W40 x D80 x t1)

External dims.: W120 x D120 x H30
Magnet; 7.84N
Required accuracy · Load
Cover retaining force: 5.9N
Selection Criteria for Main Components
Magnet
Magnetic hold down force should be sufficient to keep the PCB in place during soldering, and yet minimal enough for easy lifting of the cover when soldering is complete.
As an example, select magnets with attraction force of approximately 5.9N.
Design Evaluation
Verification of main components
Consider adding handle or hex posts for lifting of cover and overall handling
