The invention discloses a soldering tin preheating principle and application. According to the invention, a bonding wire comprises a solder layer and scaling powder arranged in the solder layer, the soldering tin preheating principle is applied to carry out preheating treatment on solder before soldering iron is used for welding tin at a high temperature, and enables the solder to become the soft state after preheating from the solid state before preheating; after the solder layer and the scaling powder arranged in the solder layer are preheated, the solder layer is enabled to become soft from the solid state, and during the high-temperature welding process, the soft solder layer relieves the sharp expansive force of the scaling powder, weakens the power of welding spot explosion caused by instantaneous, rapid and sharp heated expansion of the scaling powder during the welding process, and reduces the phenomenon that welding spot explosion generates tin balls, and the tin balls splash to the surfaces of electronic elements to cause a short circuit. The preheating time, the temperature, the supply current and the power-on or power-off states can be intelligently controlled according to the production demands, the intelligent operation degree is high, the tin ball splashing quantity during welding spot explosion can be controlled and greatly reduced, the operation is very safe, the yield of the electronic elements is high, the quality effect is excellent, and the production cost is lowered.
