IPC’s national hand soldering competitions return to Europe this year with events scheduled in France, Estonia, and Germany. Although the 2021 IPC Hand Soldering World Championship was canceled due to ongoing pandemic concerns, skilled competitors in Europe will participate in national competitions at scheduled live tradeshows.

Hand soldering competitions recognize the ability for highly skilled operators to build a functional electronics assembly within a specific time limit. Assemblies will be judged on soldering in accordance with IPC-A-610G Class 3 criteria, the speed at which the assembly was produced and overall electrical functionality of the assembly. Prizes will be awarded for the top three finishers.

Participation in IPC hand soldering competitions is free. Strict pandemic protocols will be in place throughout the competitions, with participants required to adhere to specific sanitary protocols, including cleaning and social distancing.
