RS launches range of intelligent solder station kits from WellerERT

RS

RS announced the full availability of Weller’s new WXsmart kits. The five kits are tailored to meet soldering and rework needs, from delicate work on miniaturised equipment to heavy-duty industrial applications.

The WXsmart platform is aimed at design engineers in industries requiring connectivity, security, and traceability, such as the electronics, medical, automotive, aerospace, defence, and solar technology sectors. The kits come with a WXsmart station, all the necessary tools for their specific application, including relevant intelligent tips, irons, and a cartridge tip holder. One of the sets also comes with a WXAir station plus accompanying accessories for repair. They are available from RS at a lower price than if each item were purchased separately.

According to Kevin Shield, Vice President – Tools & Consumables, Test & Measurement at RS, this latest introduction to the RS range results from the ongoing close collaboration with Weller Tools. He said: “Here at RS, we continually seek to bring new technology into our product offering, and the new smart soldering innovations that Weller is developing clearly show how focused they are on delivering the best possible experience to design engineers.”
