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 U.S. patent 2,405,866 [1] for a transformer-based soldering tool which heated and cooled rapidly, [2] essentially as described in this article. Weller formed a company ...
In 1946, Carl E. Weller applied for a patent for his soldering gun that could heat instantaneously and began production of the "Speedy Iron" in Pennsylvania. [12] It was manufactured through the Weller Manufacturing Company, and this product was the first instantaneous thermal soldering gun.
A soldering station is a multipurpose power soldering device designed for electronic components soldering. This type of equipment is mostly used in electronics and electrical engineering . Soldering station consists of one or more soldering tools connected to the main unit, which includes the controls (temperature adjustment), means of ...
The component is removed while the solder is molten, most easily by a spring-loaded puller attached to it before heating. Otherwise all joints must be freed from solder before the component can be removed. Each joint must be heated and the solder removed from it while molten using a vacuum pump, manual desoldering pump, or desoldering braid.
Soldering (US: / ˈ s ɒ d ər ɪ ŋ /; UK: / ˈ s oʊ l d ər ɪ ŋ /) is a process of joining two metal surfaces together using a filler metal called solder. The soldering process involves heating the surfaces to be joined and melting the solder, which is then allowed to cool and solidify, creating a strong and durable joint.
A ColdHeat soldering iron. ColdHeat was an American company founded to develop and market products using the proprietary graphite-like compound Athalite.The composite material is claimed by the manufacturer to have the unusual ability to conduct large amounts of heat and return to room temperature in a short amount of time.

I suggest putting soldering guns and irons in the same article but making a section specifically about soldering guns. Sjstones 03:01, 28 April 2008 (UTC) I have added a picture of a solder gun. I recently bought one. It seems to be quite different. Should add more info when I get the hang of it. Bgrimer. Irons & guns really don't do the same ...
