Equipment

Soldering Stations

  • Each soldering station should have:
    • OKI/Metcal PS-900 Iron and Power supply
    • OKI/Metcal PS-900 Stand, sponge, and tip cleaner
    • A variety of suitable tips
    • Hot Air gun
    • Solder sucker
    • Cutting mat (for cutting, not soldering)
    • Heat-proof soldering mat (for soldering, not cutting)
    • Side cutters
    • Wire strippers
    • Anti-static tweezers
    • Vaccuum pick-up tool
    • Helping hands
    • Magnifying lamps
    • Fan or Fume extractor
  • Additionally shared between them we should have:
    • Reflow oven
    • Desoldering gun
    • PCB holder (Maybe one small, one large)
    • Video microscope
    • Solder paste dispenser
    • Hot glue gun
    • A large whiteboard

Test Equipment

  • Digital Oscilloscope
  • Analogue Oscilloscope
  • Logic analyser (Maybe a few of the knockoff USB ones?)
  • Not-Fluke multimeters
  • Capacitance Meter (Might be included in the multimeter?)
  • DC Electronic Load
  • Small bench power supplies (100w)
  • Big bench power supply
  • Signal/Function generator
  • Plenty of hookup leads

Consumables

  • Solder, Leaded in various sizes
  • Solder paste (?)
  • Wire
    • Hookup/breadboard wire in lots of pretty colours
    • Multi-core in various gauges
  • Flux pens
  • Small and medium sized breadboards
  • Flux and other cleaners (isopropyl?)

Components

Need to keep these stocked up and replenished regularly

Training

We should offer some! Possible subjects...

  • Workshop introduction (How not to break everything)
  • Basic soldering
  • Advanced soldering (SMD, hot air, reflow etc.)
  • Basic/Advanced electronics
  • Arduino/Microcontroller programming
