Soldering gun - Mud Clarifier - Hydraulic Drilling Rig TR300

Applications
Soldering guns are used where more heat is needed than from pencil-style soldering irons. They can be used for heavy electrical connections, stained glass assembly, and light sheet-metal work. Typical soldering guns are rated between 100 and 240 watts power. A gun may include a two-stage trigger to give two heat settings. Consumer soldering guns are often packaged with accessory tips intended for cutting and shaping plastic.
Soldering guns may be used to solder the small SMD components, after replacing the default thick wire with a thin one. If the wire loop is bent into a rectangular shape, the gun can be used to solder 14- and 16-pin 1.27 mm pitch SMD packages in about 8 seconds by heating all pins at once.
The tip shape, in the form of a wire loop, is advantageous for getting into confined space; the tip can be rotated to get into a gap between neighbouring components. This is not practical with the cone shape of a usual soldering iron. Temperature in the soldering gun is regulated manually by holding the button until the solder melts, and then releasing it. When the solder is about to start solidifying, the button is pressed again, and so on. An experienced worker develops the skill to regulate the temperature according to need.
A disadvantage of a soldering gun is that the copper wire loop slowly dissolves in the solder and has to be regularly replaced. The soldering gun generates an electromagnetic spike when the button is released, which can be a problem for electromagnetically-sensitive devices. The spike can be seen when a high-efficiency LED is soldered, as the LED flashes. Soldering guns produce too much heat for joints on printed circuit boards. The heavy magnetic field produced by the tip can attract and hold small ferrous metal pieces (screws, etc.). History
A 1948 advertisement for a Weller soldering gun
Pistol-grip electrically-heated soldering tools had been used since the 1920s. In 1941 Carl E. Weller invented and later obtained US Patent 2405866 for a transformer-type soldering tool, which heated up rapidly. Unlike other electrically-heated tools of the time, his soldering gun used a copper heating element, directly heated by a current of hundreds of amperes produced from a small transformer in the body of the gun. The relatively small mass of the copper element heated rapidly and cooled off quickly when the trigger was released. Weller formed a company to manufacture and sell his invention commercially in 1946. The Weller company was bought in 1970 and merged into the Cooper Industries group. See also
