Temperature Controller DIY

[sianjialin]

Hi guys,

I going to modify my dip soldering machine which don't have temperature control function, I want to maintain the temperature on around 400 degrees Celsius. Thus I going to buy a PID Temperature Controller and thermocouple.

My current dip soldering machine is using uk types socket that with 3 pins, how to connect the controller, thermocouple and the soldering machine?
I'm new in electronics, please help me up, thanks.

take a look here : https://www.electronicspoint.com/projectlogs/sous-vide-cooker-elasticity-and-meat.23/
or here : https://learn.adafruit.com/sous-vide-powered-by-arduino-the-sous-viduino/pid

They are cooking applications, but the process is the same.
