Classic soldering iron
Learn moremta’s classic iron head for soldering robots is our most popular soldering technology. Probably because most customers are upgrading from hand soldering with the iron.

-

Microflame head
Learn moremta typically uses the microflame soldering head for robots in two extreme applications. At one extreme, it solders high-mass joints similar to the induction system. At the other extreme, it solders relatively small joints that require a very quick soldering process.

MLH45 laser head
Learn moremta primarily uses the MLH45 laser head for soldering robots on joints that are too small for the iron – smaller than 1mm. For the smallest applications, we combine the laser heat source with optical realignment and solder paste jet dispenser.
TR300 soldering table-top robot
The TR300 is mta’s table-top soldering robot platform. This robot is purpose-built and standardized for semi-automated applications that require point-to-point soldering.
The table-top platform is a cost-effective solution to automate existing hand-soldering processes without the cost of fully-automated systems. Automating the solder process has several advantages over hand soldering. It produces highly consist joints, improved quality, higher throughput, and it requires less skill and training than hand soldering.
This table-top soldering robot platform is also ideal for applications where human dexterity is required to position the parts. This is because operators can load and unload the parts in offline fixtures to minimize machine downtime.
MECHANICAL FEATURES
Because the TR300 is a purpose-built solution, it can support any of mta’s soldering heads without compromise. The ball-screw axis and motors provide fast repeatable motion. Likewise, they are strong enough to support our heads that include our anti-jam wire-feed system and solder wire spool. There is no need to push solder wire through lengthy and problematic feed tubes. Therefore, the solder process is more accurate and reliable wire feed than feeding the wire long distances. Similarly, we pre-plumbed a large fume extraction hose with the nozzle located directly above the solder joint. Lastly, light curtains and safety guarding are standard features.
SOFTWARE FEATURES
Our MotionEditor software is user-friendly and menu-driven. Most importantly, it controls all aspects of the soldering system, so you do not need one controller for the robot, a second for the solder process, and a third for the safety system.
(Note, the TR300 platform includes metal sides and door to protect operators with the laser soldering head.)
The main features of our TR300 table-top soldering robot platform include:
- Sturdy aluminum frame
- 4-axis soldering robot, Y-axis in the base to also present parts to the operator
- 300x300mm working area
- 0.02mm repeatability
- Industrial PC controller with Embedded Windows® operating system
- Intuitive menu-driven mta MotionEditor software
- Air preparation and selectable 110VAC or 220VAC power connections
5 reasons to choose the mta TR300 table-top soldering robot platform
- The TR300 is the ideal platform for companies looking to automate current hand soldering processes.
- Your process is difficult to fully automate (e.g. you need human dexterity to load the parts.)
- Volume or product life do not justify fully automated production.
- The remaining processes are also off-line.
- The parts fit inside a 300x300mm work area.
- Note, if you need a fully-automated platform, consider the MRC500
