SCIENCE
ENGINEERING
TECHNOLOGY
MATHEMATICS
Energy changes and transfers
Using simple mechanisms to give a larger force at the expense of smaller or slower
movements.
The word “engineering” comes from the
Latin ingenium meaning “cleverness”
and ingeniare meaning “to devise”.
Educational robotics uses two main
branches of engineering – mechanical
and electrical/electronic and requires
the application of maths, science and
experimentation to devise, test and
analyse solutions. Competition robotics
takes this a step further by giving a real
problem to solve and an environment in
which to test the solutions to the limit.
ElectronicsA robot requires sensors
to allow it to interact with
its environment as well as
motors to move, solenoids
to control pneumatics and
microcontrollers to process
the data.
Ratios and ProportionsRobot designs drawn
on paper may be at a
reduced scale and ideas
might be prototyped in
smaller sizes to test ideas
before building the full
scale robot.Gear ratios are used to
improve performance of
the robot – what is the
difference between a 3:1
gear ratio and a 1:3 gear
ratio? If using a 12 tooth
pinion, how many teeth
will the gear need to have
to achieve a 3:1 ratio?
Forces and Friction
In the case of the VEX
Robotics Competition and
VEX IQ Challenge, mobile
robots are used. For a robot
to be mobile, it needs to
have friction between its drive
wheels and the ground – too
little friction and it will slip,
too much and it won’t be able to turn.
Balanced forces - If your motor and mechanism can’t
provide the force required to lift a weight, can the
addition of counterbalances or elastic/springs assist?
Programming
The brain of the robot is
a microcontroller which
processes data received
from the sensors and
controls the actuators
such as motors and
pneumatics. A program
(code) needs to be
created which will form a
set of instructions or rules
for the robot to follow. To
make an effi cient robot,
the code needs to be
refi ned so that instructions
are executed quickly and
accurately.
Probability and
statisticsThe VEX competition
requires you to form
alliances with other teams
– statistics can help make
decisions about which
teams can complement
each other and be the
most effective alliance.
ElectricityHow much current is
required to run the motors
of the robot and how
does this change with the
loads being moved? Does
the battery have enough
capacity to run the motors
for long enough for the
tasks to be completed?
MaterialsIt is important to select
the correct materials for
the job – these could be
selected for a combination
of their strength, weight,
cost and availability.
Robotics provides a practical application for maths and shows how a number of the
fundamentals of maths can be used in the real world.
GeometryMechanisms on the
robot will require an
understanding of geometry
to ensure that parts move
correctly. It can also be
used to simplify designs
by using geometry to
move other parts of the
robot rather than by
adding motors.

1. WHAT IS SOLDERING?
Soldering is the joining together of two metals to give physical
bonding and good electrical conductivity. Solder is a combination of
metals, which are solid at normal room temperatures and become
liquid at between 180 and 230°C. Solder bonds well to various
metals, and extremely well to copper.
Soldering has many uses. It is used primarily to assemble electronic
components such as resistors, capacitors and IC’s onto printed circuit
boards. However, it can also be used to join wires, metals, and even
manufacture jewellery.
In electronics LEADFREE fl uxed core SOLDER is used.
This consists of approximately 99% Tin and 1% copper depending
on the brand of solder used. Sometimes a small percentage of
silver is added to soften the solder and reduce the melting point
temperature.
FLUX is an aggressive chemical that removes oxides and impurities
from the parts to be soldered. This ensures a good physical and
electrical joint is made. Fluxes enable good ‘wetting’ or ‘tinning’.
Wetting is a term that describes good adhesion of the solder to
the components being soldered. Tinning is a term that describes the
application of solder to the soldering iron tip, or to a component
being prepared for soldering.
2. SOLDERING IRON
These are the tools which heat the solder from room temperature
to its melting point. A modern basic electrical soldering iron consists
of the following:
The HEATING ELEMENT can be either a resistance wire
wound around a ceramic tube, or a thick fi lm resistance element
printed onto a ceramic base. The element is then insulated and
placed into a metal tube for strength and protection. This is
then thermally insulated from the handle. The element reaches
temperatures of around 370 to 400°C.
The SOLDERING BIT is a specially shaped piece of copper
plated with iron and then usually plated with chrome. Copper is used
for good thermal conductivity. Iron is very resistant to aggressive
solders and fl uxes. The bit then fi ts over or inside the heating
element dependant on the design of the soldering iron.
The HANDLE AND POWER CORD completes the soldering
iron. Various handle styles are available. The power cord is often
insulated with PVC. But, this can be damaged and melt if touched by
a hot soldering iron. Therefore silicone rubber insulated power leads
are extremely popular for long life and electrical safety.
3. IRON SELECTION
The strength or power of a soldering iron is usually expressed in
Watts. Irons generally used in electronics are typically in the range
12 to 25 Watts. The most popular irons for use in schools or for
hobbyist electronics are the 18 and 25-Watt versions.
It must be remembered that a 25-Watt iron will not run hotter
than a 12-Watt iron, but it will have more power available to quickly
replace heat drained from the iron during soldering. Therefore, the
bigger the component being soldered, the greater the need for
“quantity of heat”, the higher the power needed.
Most irons are available in a variety of voltages, 12V, 24V, 115V, and
230V are the most popular. You should always use a low voltage iron
where possible, as it is much safer.
As your soldering skills improve, you may work with temperature
sensitive devices such as integrated circuits. For these applications a
temperature-controlled soldering iron (TCS) should be used.
For bench work a soldering station may be used. This incorporates
temperature selection, optional digital temperature readout, 24V
transformer, an iron holder, and a sponge, all within a neat bench unit.
4. PREPARATION1. If using multi-stranded wire such as 7/0.2 equipment wire, twist
the strands together and tin the end of the wire.
2. Bend the lead to fi t the position on the PCB. Do not bend too
close to the component body as damage to the component
may occur.3. If the component is temperature sensitive use a pair of pliers as a
heatsink between the component body and the point to
be soldered.4. Tin the site where the component is to be soldered.
5. SOLDERING
1. Switch on the soldering iron and feed solder to the tip of the
iron as it heats up.2. Wipe off excess solder onto a damp sponge
3. Place the hot iron on the component lead and the PCB pad.
Feed the solder into the far side of the component lead . Solder
will begin to fl ow around the lead. Do not use too much solder.
4. Next remove the solder source followed by the iron.
5. Do not disturb the component for a few seconds until the solder
has solidifi ed.6. Trim the component leads to within 1mm of the soldered joint.
6. TAKE CARE
1. Plan the component layout.2. Mount the smallest components fi rst.
3. Try to leave component identifi cation markings visible
4. Support heat-producing components above the PCB with
ceramic beads.5. Keep soldering time to a minimum to reduce the risk of heat
damage to the component.6. Beware of solder bridging across tracks. This could cause a
short circuit.7. If working with static sensitive components always use a wrist
strap connected to an earthing point.
7. CHECK YOUR WORK
1. Are all of the components in place?
2. Are all of the soldered joints neat and tidy?
3. Is there too much or too little solder on the joint?
4. Has the solder fl owed evenly around the lead?
5. Is the solder joint nice and shiny?6. Are all components inserted the right way around?
(Check polarity!)7. Check for solder bridges.
AN INTRODUCTION TO
SOLDERING
8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONIn common with all tools, a soldering iron will last longer with correct care and maintenance.
1. Always wipe the bit on a damp sponge prior to making a soldered joint. Most bench stands incorporate a sponge
for this purpose.2. Always apply solder to the bit of an iron as it heats up. This will ensure good tinning and long life of the bit.
3. A solder bit that will not wet can be cleaned by lightly rubbing the bit with a nylon pad. Ensure the iron is switched
off and do not use wire wool or emery paper as this will remove protective plating and shorten the bit life.
4. Always keep a hot iron in a bench stand.
5. Never put a soldering iron into liquid.
6. Regularly check the cable for burns. Alternatively use an iron that is supplied with silicone cable which is resistant
to burns from the soldering iron.
It is sometimes necessary to remove a component from a PCB. To desolder a component melt the solder around
the component with a soldering iron. When the solder fl ows remove the molten solder with a desolder pump.
Replace the iron in a stand and allow the component to cool for a few seconds. Carefully remove the component
from the holes in the PCB.

temperature-controlled soldering iron (TCS) should be used.
For bench work a soldering station may be used. This incorporates
temperature selection, optional digital temperature readout, 24V
transformer, an iron holder, and a sponge, all within a neat bench unit.
