Process Chosen These analyses address the soldering of cables, one of the most vital processes in the manufacturing industry, especially in electrical systems and electronic devices. The reliability and durability of electronic devices are hugely based on the soldering process. It is crucial to boost the operations of the process in the industrial processes. Exploring and utilizing the Internet of Things (IIoT) in the soldering of cables can greatly improve quality assurance and minimize some of the major challenges in the cabling process. By selecting the soldering of cable as the focus process, I can influence my knowledge and understanding of electronics manufacturing. The soldering process plays a vital role in ensuring electronic products' safety, functionality, and durability. Using the IIoT technologies in the soldering process, it is possible to improve and monitor the soldering process by applying data analysis and using sensors in the soldering process. The potential advantages of IIoT In the soldering process are numerous. Controlling and monitoring various variables such as soldering time, cable alignment, and solder temperature makes it possible to optimize the soldering and improve the quality of solder joints. The variables have an impact on the performance of solder connections (Wu et al., 2020). By using IIoT enables sensors and data collection techniques, it is possible to acquire real-time information on the variables and study them for quality assurance and process improvement. Therefore, selecting the soldering of electric cables as the major point allows us to reach the full potential of IIoT in enhancing quality assurance. IIoT has the potential to transform the soldering process to achieve customer satisfaction and improve efficiency. 5 Soldering Time An electronic timer is compatible with the soldering station to measure the soldering time. The soldering expert should activate the timer when the soldering process begins and stop it when they have completed it. Using the timer effectively ensures that it is possible to acquire accurate measurements for the exact time taken during the soldering operation. Soldering Flux application A vision system with advanced image recognition can monitor flux applications. The sensor system can capture images of the cables during and after the flux application process to assess the coverage and uniformity of the flux. Monitoring the images can provide elite data on the state of the flux application in terms of acquiring the necessary standards and maintaining the necessary levels of consistency. Cable alignment A computer vision system is an effective system for measuring cable alignment. Soldering experts can place the cameras strategically to capture cable images during soldering and cabling. Cabling alignment is essential since it is one factor determining the cables' long- term durability. Besides, it is possible to use Image processing algorithms to evaluate the alignment and the cable position to detect any minimal defections. 4.
