Description

The frame’s main purpose is to hold a “ribbon” (likely a flexible flat cable or ribbon cable) securely in place during a soldering process. The array of brass studs is the key to this function.

The “Soldering RH Holder Ribbon Holding Frame” is secured to a soldering station or machine.
A ribbon cable is carefully placed onto the frame, with its individual conductors aligning precisely with the brass studs. The frame’s design ensures the ribbon cable lies flat and straight.

Soldering is performed (manual or automated) to create electrical connections between the ribbon cable conductors and the brass studs (or other components being held by the studs).

Once soldering is complete and the joints have cooled, the ribbon cable
assembly can be safely removed from the frame.
