Hi all,
I have question regarding to heater I want to build. It suppose to be a heater used for soldering a thin copper sheet (1mm thick) with other small copper components. Heater has to be flat as much as possible and reach the temp up to ~250C (solder melting point). The copper sheet surface is about 950x800 mm, so heater should have the equal size in contact surface area. Copper sheet needs to be heated up equally while soldering due to thermal expansion stress, so it needs to keep flatness as possible when is cooled back down, therefore this kind of flat design heater is needed. Also a heat radiation from the heater needs to be as much homogeneous as possible.
So, my question basically is, what would be the best way to build such a heater?
I was thinking about using some resist wire spiral poured into some kind of ceramic but before i start search for any suitable solution I'd like to know your opinion,
Thank you very much.
