A solder material test apparatus includes a control unit and a storage
unit which stores master data in advance in which a printing process time
when a printing process is performed by using a test-sample solder
material is associated with deterioration degree data of the test-sample
solder material at the printing process time. The control unit includes a
deterioration degree data acquiring unit which acquires deterioration
degree data for indicating a deterioration degree of a test-sample solder
material, a reading unit which reads a printing process time associated
with deterioration degree data set as a limit value with reference to
master data and reads a printing process time associated with the
deterioration degree data acquired by the deterioration degree data
acquiring unit, an operating unit which operates an available remaining
time that indicates difference between the printing process times, and a
display control unit which informs the available remaining time to a
user.
