...Min Zeng; Jianxing Xie; Zhitao Li; Qincheng Wei; Hui Yang Purpose This study aims to introduce a novel technique for nonlinear sensor time constant estimation and sensor dynamic compensation in hot-bar soldering using an extended Kalman filter (EKF) to estimate the temperature of the thermocouple...

... reflow soldering (VPS), where – as it was found – different thermocouple constructions can affect the set parameters of the oven and resulting soldering profiles significantly. Design/methodology/approach The study experiments showed significant alteration of the heating profiles during the process...
