Solcor Welding

The union of metals has been worked for centuries, specifically since the Bronze Age (3,300 to 1,200 B.C.), when humanity began to build objects for everyday use and for war. 

 

But in the Iron Age (1,200 to 550 B.C.), the techniques were already more refined, and it was in this stage when rudimentary welding was invented.

However, it took a lot of trial and error until the 19th century when modern welding was created. It is not possible to attribute this invention to a single person, but we can mention the Frenchman De Meritens, who at that time joined lead plates using the heat of an arc through carbon rods.

This process takes place when a flow of electricity (a large number of electrons) passes through a gaseous or vacuum environment and heats the metal to a temperature of around 4,000 degrees Celsius, allowing it to be melted for welding.

Then, resin-based flux began to be used, such as rosin, which has the property of being electrically insulating, as well as not being corrosive and protects the points that were welded.

Thus, the resin-based welding that we use in SOLCOR is left with excellent cleanliness and provides high protection for your musical instrument cables and microphones.
