Not a solder station as such, solder stations are assembly line work tools.
My pre retirement work required soldering in all sorts of situations and all sorts of soldering equipment with various electric & gas, cables from miniature to stuff as thick as yer arm.
Since retiring I have tools more suited to home DIY, but soldering is not something I do every day. I have two soldering iron’s, a miniature pen type for the IC sized wires and a chunky industrial for heavier wire.

It looks like the Borg assimilated your system.

Two racks, all interconnects hang freely as do the burndies and signal cables to not touch. The whole system lives in a cupboard.

Simple in those days…

Just plug in, (usually with the cables found in the box), and enjoy the music…

No nagging doubts if the supporting table is this or that, and another few thousand pounds…
No nagging doubts if the particular cable lies this way or that…
No nagging doubts if the cable is the right stuff of not…
No nagging doubts if the right plugs are used or not…

Just sit back ad enjoy the music…

How different the world is these days?
