See full text

Manufacturing a product, wherein the product includes a first part and a second part, wherein the first part includes solder pins and the second part includes solder pads, wherein each of the solder pins has the matching solder pad, wherein each of the solder pads is covered by a matching solder paste bead. Aligning the solder pins against the solder pads in a way that each pair of the solder pin and the matching solder pad is thermally and electrically connected by the matching solder paste bead. Connecting a mating connector to the first part, wherein the mating connector is operable for providing a part of an electrical conducting path. Heating at least one of the solder paste beads by an electrical resistive heating, wherein the electrical resistive heating is generated by an electrical current flowing through the electrical conducting path.
