Soldering, Desoldering and Rework System
Power. Precision. Performance.
METCAL MX-5000
Power. Precision. Performance.
Today, the main challenges for hand soldering and rework are driven
by three factors. First, the need for more heat with lead-free and high
thermal demand boards. Second, the need for higher levels of
precision with increasingly smaller components. And finally, the need
for greater control with components and substrates that require
limited exposure to high temperatures.
The new 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 new 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 new 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.
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.
Metcal Gives You Choices
The new 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": 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 new 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.
MX-5000 Soldering Hand-pieces
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 new 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 new 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.

Metcal TipSaver Workstand
with or without sponge
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.

Optimizing Results with Proper Geometry Selection
Selecting the correct cartridge geometry is extremely important to ensure high levels of heat transfer efficiency.
To optimize the soldering process and to take better advantage of your soldering system's available power, always consider
using tip geometries with the largest possible contact area. While long, small diameter, pointed tips are attractive for limited
access to components, they may not promote heat transfer to the soldering joint as well as short, blunt-faced geometries.
This guide shows the selection of cartridges available for the Metcal MX-5000 Soldering, Desoldering and Rework Systems.
Metcal offers a comprehensive range of cartridges for production soldering, touch-up soldering, pad clean-up,
SMD component, and through-hole desoldering.
STTC Cartridges provide a wide range of soldering geometrics for through-hole and SMD rework.
For use with the MX-RM3E and the Metcal Advanced TM Hand-piece (MX-H1-AV).
STTC Power Cartridges
Power cartridges are optimized for power delivery, ideal for high thermal demand applications including lead-free soldering
processes and high mass substrates and components. These cartridges are designed with tip geometries to promote
thermal transfer resulting in significant performance improvement.
