PC-controlled Martin “Expert” Pb-free rework station version 9.6 is said to automatically accomplish any stage of SMT repair, from removal to replacement, as well as the re-solder of BGAs, CSPs, µBGAs and other SMDs. A high-res camera combined with auto-vision placement controls component positioning in full and continuous view of the operator. There is no need to shuttle the camera out of the path of the placement head. The IR underheating unit adjusts to exact board size; heats the underside of the PCB and is said to attain Pb-free processing temperatures faster, with no board warpage or component damage. Includes a selection of nozzles for placement, soldering and solder removal, as well as a flux pen and a paste dispensing unit for re-soldering. Includes vacuum pen.
