[0049] like Fig.10 As shown, in one embodiment, the tin furnace mechanism 3 further includes a scraper 321 , the scraper 321 is connected to a linear drive assembly, and the scraper 321 is located above the tin cup 311 .

[0050] In this embodiment, the tin bath 312 is filled with tin solution. The action of the first lifting cylinder 3111 can make the tin cup 311 completely immersed in the tin bath 312 to hold the tin solution.

[0055] like Fig.11 As shown, preferably, a first heating rod 3121 and a first temperature sensor 3122 are disposed in the tin bath 312 .

[0056] The tin solution in the tin bath 312 is heated by the first heating rod 3121, and cooperates with the first temperature sensor 3122 to keep the tin solution in a certain temperature range. The shell of the tin bath 312 is preferably a hollow shell, which can effectively achieve the purpose of heat insulation.

[0057] like Figure 8 and 9 As shown, preferably, an exhaust hood 34 is provided above the tin bath 312 , and the exhaust hood 34 has negative pressure, which can extract harmful gases to avoid occupational diseases.

[0059] Clean water is filled into the cleaning water tank 41, and the water cup 42 is lifted and lowered in the cleaning water tank 41 by the third lifting cylinder 421 to be filled with water. The product 8 enters the water cup 42 to clean chemical residues, and the cooperation of the second heating rod and the second temperature sensor can maintain the temperature of the clean water.

[0060] like Fig.13 and 14 As shown, in one embodiment, a water collecting trough 52 is arranged in front of the wind knife 51, and the water stains blown away by the wind knife 51 fall into the water collecting trough 52, wherein a support column 53 is arranged below the wind knife 51, and the wind knife 51 and the support column 53 are connected by an axis 511, and an axis hole and an opening through the axis hole and the outside are arranged on the support column 53, and a locking screw is arranged at the opening, and the axis 511 of the wind knife 51 can be fixed to the support column 53 by the locking screw, and then the angle of the wind knife 51 can be adjusted according to the different products 8 to control the angle of the blowing wind, wherein the wind adopts negative ion wind.

[0061] Preferably, there is an output conveyor belt 7 after the cooling and drying device 5, that is, the processed product 8 is placed on the output conveyor belt 7 and transferred to the next process.

[0062] like Figure 3 and 4As shown, in one embodiment, the three-axis moving module includes a Z-axis linear module 64, an X-axis linear module 63 and a Y-axis linear module 62, wherein the Y-axis linear module 62 includes two Y-axis linear guides 621, the Y-axis linear guide 621 is fixed on the gantry, and a synchronous wheel 622 and a synchronous belt 623 are provided on the Y-axis linear guide 621, the X-axis linear module 63 is connected to the synchronous belt 623 and is slidably connected to the Y-axis linear guide 621, the synchronous wheels 622 on the two Y-axis linear guides 621 are linked through a transmission shaft 66, the Z-axis linear module 64 is connected to the X-axis linear module 63, and the clamp 65 is connected to the Z-axis linear module 64.

[0063] The gantry spans the entire workbench 91, and the synchronous belt 623 is stretched through the synchronous wheel 622, one of which is connected to the servo motor 61. When the servo motor 61 is in motion, the two synchronous belts 623 are moved simultaneously through the transmission shaft 66, thereby controlling the X-axis linear module 63 to move along the Y-axis linear guide 621. This avoids jitter, rail gnawing and other problems caused by the asynchronous response of the two servo motors 61 when working. Compared with linear bearings, the linear guide 621 has a higher load and runs more smoothly; the Z-axis linear module 64 can be moved along the X-direction through the X-axis linear module 63, and the Z-axis linear module 64 can drive the clamp 65 to move up and down in the Z direction, wherein the clamp 65 and the Z-axis linear module 64 are detachably connected, that is, different clamps 65 can be replaced according to different products 8.

[0064] The working process is as follows:

[0065] S1. First, replace the corresponding clamping jaws 65 and the fixing fixture 13 according to the model of the product 8, adjust the angle of the wind knife 51, and set the duration and height of the soldering of the product 8 by the manipulator in advance;

[0066] S2, placing the product 8 on the fixed fixture 13;

[0067] S3, using the transfer manipulator 6 to grab the product 8 on the fixed fixture 13 and move it to the pump mechanism 2, where the peristaltic pump 23 keeps the containing tank 211 full of flux with a stable liquid level, where the product 8 contacts and attaches to the flux, and the excess flux flows to the overflow tank 212 for storage;

[0068] S4, the transfer robot 6 transfers the product 8 to the tin furnace mechanism 3, where the tin cup 311 is filled with tin solution from the tin tank 312 and rises, and the scraper 321 scrapes off the oxide layer on the surface of the tin cup 311 under the drive of the linear cylinder 322, and the product 8 contacts the tin solution and solders here. By initially setting the action of the transfer robot 6, the time and height of soldering can be controlled to make all products 8 uniform, and the harmful gas generated in the process is extracted and processed by the exhaust hood 34 to keep the air on site clean;

[0069] S4, the transfer robot 6 transfers the product 8 to the water washing mechanism 4, where the water cup 42 scoops clean water from the washing tank 41 and rises up, and the product 8 contacts the clean water for washing to prevent residues from adhering to the product 8 and causing poor appearance of the product 8;

[0070] S5, the transfer robot 6 transfers the product 8 to the cooling and drying device 5, where the product 8 is in the water collection tank 52, and the negative ion wind blown by the wind knife 51 dries the water stains on the surface of the product 8 to prevent poor oxidation of the copper parts;

[0071] S6, the transfer robot 6 transfers the product 8 to the output conveyor belt 7 to enter the next process.
