Power. Precision. Performance.
Power. Precision. Performance.
The MX-5000 Soldering, Desoldering and Rework System is the next
generation of the trusted Metcal Soldering Systems that enable
increased productivity and process control for a wide range of
applications. Building on the renowned strengths of its popular
MX-500 predecessor, the MX-5000 Series increases output
power, adds process feedback, and improves application flexibility
with new hand-pieces.
More power.
With nearly double the power of its predecessor, the
MX-5000 time-to-recovery increases production rates and throughput.
The challenges of high mass components, multilayered boards and
lead-free solders are seamlessly matched.
Improved ergonomics.
The MX-5000 Series offers two new soldering
hand-pieces. The Metcal Advanced
™
Hand-piece for soldering and
rework provides a cooler, lighter weight and more comfortable
feel for the operator. And, the Metcal UltraFine
™
Hand-piece features a
new generation of extremely fine diameter cartridges in
a slim profiled handle. Both of these hand-piece designs advance
manual dexterity and ergonomics resulting in productivity gains
and operator comfort. All Hand-pieces are forward and backward
compatible, and all STTC cartridges tips will function with both MX-500
and MX-5000 Systems.
Greater process control.
SmartHeat
®
Technology in every
MX-5000 System means that soldering and rework are always
performed at safe, controlled temperatures. Metcal users know that
moderate fixed temperatures, where power is varied, provide the
best assurance for a well controlled soldering and rework process.
The MX-5000 is ESD safe and features incoming AC ground
monitoring circuitry. This AC (mains) ground monitor detects power
line ground failures and immediately alerts the operator and shuts
down the system. Only after the power line has been restored, can the
MX-5000 be restarted and soldering operations can be resumed.
Metcal Gives You Choices
The MX-5000 Series provides users with a wide range of choices
to address conduction soldering and rework processes. At the core
of each system is a microprocessor controlled power supply that
provides more power, the highest level of precision and advanced
user features for greater process control.
It has a built-in power indication meter with digital display and bar
graph that dynamically provides the operator with feedback on the
status of the soldering operation. Whether using a large mass rework
tip for QFPs or a fine-point soldering tip, the power indication meter
is a valuable resource for making consistent, acceptable solder joints.
The system has four mode indications: "Ready Mode": the hand-piece
is removed from the workstand, ready for soldering or rework.
"Power Mode": the hand-piece's tip is in contact with the load. The
power indication meter provides graphical and numeric feedback on
the system power output. "Sleep Mode" (Programmable sleep from 10
to 120min): the hand-piece is at rest in the workstand; power is
reduced to the hand-piece. "Powersave Mode": power to the hand-piece
is shut off. This programmable feature allows a supervisor to set the
desired time to cut off power to the hand-piece.
01
Hand-pieces: Comfort and Productivity
The four hand-pieces available for the MX-5000 will make the task at hand seem effortless.
The
Metcal Advanced
™
Soldering Hand-piece
(MX-H1-AV) is a general purpose tool for single
task soldering, touch-up soldering, Surface Mount Device (SMD) rework, and pad clean-up.
This hand-piece uniquely offers users a choice of three interchangeable grips
to meet operator preferences for comfort and feel, ultimately resulting in higher levels of
productivity. The Metcal Advanced
™
Hand-piece uses the highly popular STTC and SMTC
Series cartridges.
A new speciality tool, the
Metcal UltraFine
™
Hand-piece,
is designed for very fine soldering on
mini and micro components. The new series of UFTC cartridges include geometries as small
as 0.2 mm (.0078"). A slim handle and cool-to-the-touch feel and, like the Metcal Advanced
™
Hand-piece, its interchangeable grips, promote operator acceptance and productivity.
For efficient and ergonomic removal of discreet and SOIC components, the
Precision
Tweezers Hand-piece
will increase productivity with greater removal speed and increased
precision. The tweezers, using the PTTC Series of cartridges, are able to rework devices
as small as 0201 by combining fine-tip soldering cartridges and a multiple axis hand-piece
adjustability to achieve proper tip alignment.
The high power
Desoldering Hand-piece, MX-DS1,
is designed for plated-through-hole
component desoldering. The easy-to-grip handle allows the task to be completed quickly and
comfortably. This "shop-air" hand tool, in combination with the MX-5000 Series power supply,
provides unprecedented thermal performance on difficult ground planes and other high-mass
applications.
Workstand: Improved Tip Life, More User Options, Increased Ergonomics
The
Metcal TipSaver
™
Workstand
improves tip life as well as operator ergonomics. This
“Auto-Sleep” Workstand reduces the power to the hand-piece when it is placed in the Metcal
TipSaver
™
Workstand. Reduction in power will substantially decrease tip oxidation,
a major cause of reduced tip life.
The TipSaver
™
Workstand gives users a choice for configuration with soft, coiled brass tip
cleaner or with both the brass cleaner and the traditional sponge holder. Many users prefer
the brass-only option, as this reduces the potential to introduce contaminants to the tip,
which can occur with poorly maintained sponges.
This new workstand has an adjustable angle cradle that allows operators to select and lock
the angle for tool placement in the holder to meet their preference. This can positively impact
ergonomics and productivity.

MX-5010 Soldering and Rework System
The MX-5010 is configured with the Metcal Advanced
™
Hand-piece. This system is highly
effective for soldering applications including: lead-free, high mass components or boards,
thermally sensitive components requiring low operating temperature, high volume production
soldering and touch-up soldering operations. For these applications, STTC Series (see pages
6 & 7) soldering cartridges are offered in dozens of geometries and sizes.
In addition, the MX-5010 can be used for conduction rework of SMDs when using SMTC
Series soldering cartridges with such geometries as: blade, tunnel and quad styles that
provide exact part fit up. Even more, the high power MX-5010 System is ideally suited for
quickly and efficiently heating high-mass tips in this range, increasing operator throughput.
A variety of SMTC soldering cartridge geometries are available (see pages 8 & 9).
Systems Configurations
and Recommended Applications
02
MX-5020 UltraFine
™
Soldering System
The MX-5020 includes the new Metcal UltraFine
™
Soldering Hand-piece. Using the all-new
UFTC cartridges, the hand-piece is a specialty tool for soldering and touch-up of very
small components, restricted access or high density component packaging on a PCB.
The new range of UFTC cartridges (see page 10) feature tip geometries of 0.2 mm (.0078")
to 1.2 mm (.047"). With their relatively small geometries and low mass, as compared to the
STTC Series, these are suited for low-mass or small part soldering.
MX-5041 Precision Tweezers, Soldering and Rework System
The MX-5041 combines both the Metcal Advanced
™
Hand-piece and the Precision Tweezers
Hand-piece. Users get maximum application flexibility for soldering and reworking the widest
range of surface mount components. When switching hand-pieces, tips reach operating
temperature in seconds by simply pressing the Output Selector/Command Button.
MX-5050 Plated-Through-Hole Component Desoldering System
Users challenged by very large ground planes or lead-free solders, when desoldering through-
hole devices, now have a new, high-power solution with the Metcal MX-5050. With constant
temperature and variable power, the system safely and rapidly responds to the thermal load
demands of the application. The exceptional power of the MX-5050 System's power supply
coupled with the high mass STDC desoldering cartridges (see page 10) provide assurance
for fast, high quality results.
MX-5051 Soldering, Desoldering and Rework System
For unmatched rework versatility, the MX-5051 addresses through-hole desoldering, general
soldering, and SMD rework applications. The system includes two hand-pieces. The Metcal
Advanced
™
Hand-piece with a selection of soldering and SMD rework cartridges and the
Metcal MX-DS1 Desoldering hand-piece for through-hole desoldering. This configuration
is ideal for mixed technology boards and provides the greatest versatility for addressing
soldering and rework tasks.

these hand-pieces with the MX-5000 System. However, for improved operator comfort and ergonomics, the new Metcal Advanced
™
Hand-piece (STTC and SMTC cartridges) and the MX-PTZ Precision Tweezers are highly recommended.
