I’ve done my fair share of soldering as a ham radio operator. I’ve learned a few techniques watching this which I’ll employ. Nowhere close to this detail and I never knew this level of soldering existed. Amazing.
@Vinsu Karma , This guy gets paid by the hour . No wonder they cost billions to make . If NASA was paying for this instead of taxpayers I bet they would change their procedures .
The video from paceworldwide shows how to do this in 3 steps . 1-Tin the wire and trim to length 2-Insert some twisted up solder into the hole of the cup - push it down the into the hole until it bottoms out and trim off level with the top of the hole . 3- Heat the cup and as the solder melts insert the wire and wait for a second and remove the iron and let cool . Perfect joint every time .
This is a step by step instructional video people of course it’s going to seem complicated and drawn out. It would take 20-30 seconds to do if done in a real application
Just use a quick crimp and some tape. Just as good. Just kidding. But it's hilarious reading the comments from all the armchair solder techs. I'm an engineer. I scrutinize shitty soldering on the regular. This guy knows his shit.
This is ridiculous, even if it's for avionics, how this guy does it is actually ridiculous, no technician (in the avionics) will ever do this, I saw a comment saying everithing this guy has done wrong (too much heat, flux being useless because the heat is so hugh it vaporizes itself immediately) and for gods sake : never use a sponge it's the worst way to clean something that is hot ! Use stelwool or something similar, not the wet sponge because it basically rapes the tip of the iron and make it oxydize way faster !
I do think to add reliability, that lead free solder should be dumped, then a return to a good Tin Lead based alloy........... I just hate the way that lead free stuff goes grey when it freezes.
just because its not shiny you don't like it ? That's not enough to drop lead-free. If lead-free is a thing in the first place it's because the manufacturing process expunged a lot of lead in the nature and in natural reserves of water which could lead (no pun intended) to severe illinesses for the inhabitants of the area deserved by the contaminated reserve.
You don't need to be doing it just like the guy in the video, you can do a simillar/better job faster ^^ And the guy apparently believes that you must de-plate where you're going to make a joint ? That's ultra-stupid because the gold is here to make a better contact and have less resistance !
They remove the gold because otherwise it dissolves into the solder and makes the joint less ductile than it would otherwise be. Brittle solder joints is a big concern in spaceflight and aviation because it makes it more vulnerable to cracking in high vibration environments.
@@atomicskull6405 Exactly. At a defense contractor I worked at, we had to do this with every single solder joint that was gold plated. In a production facility, they would have someone that specifically removed the gold from each solder cup on each connector being used on a particular job. That would be their job all day. Then those connectors were sent down the line to have someone terminate them with the correct wires. Also, many times you can order them from the manufacturer pre-tinned. Then you just had to remove the solder from each cup to remove the gold contamination.
shit, I had no idea you are supposed to strip gold from these things. I don't do avionics but I never saw it done industrially either, but maybe its something I missed. Thanks for the video. That might be a way to reduce gold embrittlement.
I would just say when you clean em, turn it upside down, don't leave it right side up in the vise. A nice ball vise would be good for this, or a tilting vise. The the lazy people: boeing crash #43223
No frickin wonder why avionics shops will rob you blind and smile about it. Sir- I'm just doing my expert soldering job - These things take time" The part - $7.50 Labor $475. Have a good day."
T'occupe pas, le mec fait les pires chose en termes de soudures : il laisse son fer chauffer beaucoup trop, nettoie la pointe de son fer avec une eponge mouillée (ce qui abime la pointe et l'oxyde rapidement) et te dis "d'enlever l'or du connecteur" alors qu'il faut jamais faire cela ^^ l'or il est pas la pour rien et ce mec n'a rien compris ^^ va donc voir EEVBlog (aussi en anglais mais il me semble que les sous titres youtube marchent bien sur ses videos) il a fait une serie de tutos qui sont excellents y'a aussi CYROB (en francais).
You waste more material than you use. I can imagine over the years, just how much money is wasted by doing this. Also, you didn't put enough solder on the connection. You spilled some down the side of the connector pin, and you mad a hell of a mess. I mean I'm not a professional solder welder. But I do play one on TV.
How many of those friggen wipes must he go through if he is doing the wiring for a space mission? The wipes are massive compared to what hes working on...surely you could cut 1 wipe into 4 and it would still probably be overkill?? That process blows..and is incomplete anyway - he didn't clean the wick first and therefore potentially contaminated the join. Would it still hold? Yes. Better than any join done by any other youtuber or person in these comments. Is it 'technically' the best possible join? No. Lol. Fail. 😝
I challenge the comments to find another video that even comes close to this level of detail and explanation. There are no other soldering videos that can compare to this 4 part series. Everyone knows you can do this with spit and sweat from your armpit, but that doesn't make the best cable possible or one that will last. I for one do no think it is worth bragging that you can make the worst cable possible and your boss will be satisfied. No wonder we haven't been to the moon in a while.
I still didn't understand the part where you removed the extra solder from inside the terminal. I've never seen that practiced that in India... here, we just roll the wick, then place it into the terminal, touch the hot iron on the outside of the terminal, and it's done... but your technique seems much faster and cleaner.
*This is why your shit fails of poor construction!* _BTW this is year 2029...if you're wondering we won the war against South Korea&Russia....There is still a pretty harsh Nuclear Winter but everything is back to normal....ou and we also discovered a new planet which has dinosaurs wierd creatures,we called it India,since in 2022 Pakistan invaded India so we felt like since there is no India no more we might as well just repurpose that name!_
You are the reason we have not been openly contacted by any extraterrestrial beings of a higher intelligence. You are a shame to our entire species. Your agoraphobic humor is dated and your progeny will marry outside your ethnicity. You can grumble or insist you are some misunderstood comedic genius if you wish. The truth told is that nobody will miss you at all when you are dead and the world be made better for it. Please do not make us wait long.
@@AvantgarbleBlogspotMixtapes ... Speaking of dumb. You said "your agoraphobic humor is dated" I believe the word "xenophobic" would have been a better fit, as it relates to this guy's "prejudice" or "bigoted" comment made in poor taste. To that I would agree. Nothing he said leaves us to presume hes afraid of large crowds, places, or situations he can't escape. He's not so much racist or agoraphobic, as he is ignorant and subsequently xenophobic.
It most definitely isn't. Aviation does it this way too (virtually the same process). Bigger the blob, the better the job, don't cut it when you are 30,000 feet, or heading into space. It is amazing to watch folks that do this everyday and can do it amazingly fast. Truly an art to behold.
This would be perfect if it wasn't made so hard to enjoy by the tedios painful and unecessary uninterested reading by someone who doesn't have a clue whag they are reading.
sure we do, i did it on a New Horizons solder joint, but i only needed J-STD cert for that one. Nasa cert was required for the apogee thruster fuel and ox valves i helped build
There's no way an avionics technician is going to spend this much time soldering a connection. I get that the standards are higher than say an automotive tech but jeez really!
that's total BS ! I am an experienced welder/solderer for more than 30 some years and had never went through all of those steps, in order to come up with a perfect solder connection ! Mike Bolton ought to stick with the scientific study and building of NASA rockets, perhaps ? Mr. Bolton has taken the *art of soldering* way too serious
I don't think my boss will appreciated very much !!! in reality....take too much time for cleaning and preparation to one piece of sodering....for viewing how to do...it is helpful..for work....I don't think it is practial...anyway...learn how to do is a good way to do the job differently.

Should have titled it "How to turn a .01 connector pin into a $75.00 connector pin in 48 easy steps".
@Vinsu Karma , This guy gets paid by the hour . No wonder they cost billions to make . If NASA was paying for this instead of taxpayers I bet they would change their procedures .
@@mr.patrick5726 - Aerospace does it similar, commercial and military. Different mindset when lives and million/billions are on the line.
The downside of gold plated contacts. Don’t need all of this effort if the contacts aren’t gold plated.
dealing with a project at work that involves similar soldering and needed a refresher. this was perfect for me! thank you!

Hands down very professional , got many usefull tips thank you
Itried this method but it took me 48 years to make a crystal radio ,,,,,,
Great instructional video!
Where do you order your machined pins in bulk?
Thank you for taking the time to do this video.
best.
Are we building a space shuttle?
Well it's a class on NASA soldering standards so...
good show Sir, excellent camera work
but the crux was reading and following the process spec..
Salute!
Process instructions as read didn't allow for use of solder wick, yet he used solder wick when removing the solder after pretinning the terminal.
I'm not sure the connection was clean enough. He should start over.
Is that just alcohol on the Acid Brush?
What is the acid you used for cleaning or removing the flux?
Just use a quick crimp and some tape. Just as good.
Just kidding. But it's hilarious reading the comments from all the armchair solder techs. I'm an engineer. I scrutinize shitty soldering on the regular. This guy knows his shit.
I am sorry to inform you , you are terminated for substandard performance. One soldered wire a day is sub par.
That's RIDICULOUS
Scrub a dub dub!
This video almost feels like an April Fools joke

Next time you fly in an airplane, be thankful that someone took the time to do his job properly according to specs.

So he did all the cleaning shit, but didn't clean the wick?
This shows why SpaceX is kicking NASA’s butt.
This guy would drop dead if one of his students just crimped it and walked away.
put wire in that cup, put flux, solder, clean thats it hah
LOL
ya crimp a cup pin..thats prolly something u'd actually so being a genius and all
you aunt going to get anything completed at that rate.
Helo, Thanks
12 HOURS LATER...
Since when is 10:45 seconds equal to 12 hours?
@@daltonpatterson5076 Oh Sh!t you can count... What else can the Rainman do?
Good God, you can solder one wire a day!
Payed by hour
Beyond my imagination that such process exits.
im not surprised
They.re working hard. And bleed money
In the NASA the simple act to solder a terminal involves rocket science.

With NASA's track record, I think they need to be taking advice from the aviation industry..........!
They remove the gold because otherwise it dissolves into the solder and makes the joint less ductile than it would otherwise be. Brittle solder joints is a big concern in spaceflight and aviation because it makes it more vulnerable to cracking in high vibration environments.

paint dries faster than this procedure....
Just curious. Why must there be a wire width distance between insulation and joint?
Good question. I was taught it allows for some flexibility of the connection. Less risk of fracturing the solder joint.
i think its about reducing risk of fatigue fracture under vibration conditions

If this is not a mission critical pin for landing a spaceship when saving the humanity then its too much work for one simple pin.
