A multi-tool soldering system allows up to five different bench top tools to be connected simultaneously such as soldering irons, hot tweezers and desoldering irons.

Soldering systems specialist JBC has introduced the MS 9000 multi-tool system that allows up to five different bench top tools to be connected simultaneously. This can be up to five soldering irons, five hot tweezers, two desoldering irons, or a combination of these. The system has four main components; control unit, tools stand block, electric desoldering pump and low voltage power supply.

The tools stand block, which accepts the quickly interchangeable tool modules, also has a connector for a second desoldering pump module.

The control unit monitors the complete system, enables the temperature of each tool in the stand to be set independently, displays the parameters for each tool and provides operational history such as total hours, sleep cycles and iron changes.

Features of the JBC Advanced range, including low temperature soldering and lightweight hand pieces, are incorporated in the multi-tool system.

Furthermore JBC soldering systems are not only fast, reaching working temperature in only two seconds, but new technology, it is claimed, enables tips to last up to four times longer than those of conventional systems.
