  • No profile rework system heat control
    Publication number: 20040025336
    Abstract: A component removal and replacement system heat control mainly used in reworking surface mount components such as BGA's that uses electronic circuits to bring the component to reflow without using a profile. By monitoring the actual temperatures of the printed circuit board and the component to control the amount of heat provided to their surfaces while using the added circuitry to compensate for different boards and components it allows reworking with out the need for profiles either manually or automatically generated.
