Hot Air SMD Rework Station
FINEPLACER® pico rs is an enhanced hot air rework station for assembly and rework of all types of SMD components.
The system is a bestseller for professional mobile device rework in high density environments. A high level of process modularity allows all rework process steps within one system. The FINEPLACER® pico rs system is at home in R&D, process development, prototyping and production environments.
Application area from 01005 up to large BGA on small to medium sized PCBs, with the goal to have highly reproducible soldering results.
"We have been partners with Finetech for over 15 years now and they have always been open to our needs. The support they provide is immeasurable – their engineering team is very accessible and everyone is well connected and deeply involved with each project. The quality we get is always at the highest level – from the first to the 2,000th board.”

Applications & Processes
From small 008004 components to massive BGA - with a broad range of supported applications and processes, our professional SMD rework systems are ready to tackle any SMD rework challenge. With industry-leading thermal management and a modular hardware and software architecture, our SMD rework systems have been designed to yield reproducible process results for all steps of the SMD rework cycle.
Functions - Modules - Enhancements
Our SMD rework solutions are as individual as our customers' requirements and offer a wide range of configuration options. In addition to the system's basic functions, which are part of the standard functional range, numerous process modules are available for each system, expanding the spectrum of applications. Retrofittable at any time, they enable additional SMD rework processes either directly or as part of a module package. A selection of functional enhancements and accessory systems make daily work with the SMD rework system easier and help to make certain process sequences even more efficient.
Direct contact heating from the top with chip specific tool design to apply temperature from the chip side. E.g. used for thermocompression, gluing or ACA bonding
Manual squeegee units for viscous materials like adhesives or flux. Suitable for use with stamping tools or for direct dipping of various sized components. With adaptable layer thicknesses.
Description coming soon
For a precise alignment of large components via edges | Allows two opposite corners of a large component and its corresponding pad area on the substrate to be viewed under high magnification.
Various direct contact heating options to heat up substrates from the bottom during the process. Substrate-specific fixations available. Optionally with process gas integration. Used e.g. for thermocompression, thermal adhesive or thermosonic bonding.
Automatic tracking and logging of all process relevant parameters (e.g. temperature, force, etc.) as well as associated component details (e.g. serial numbers).
Allows the adaptation of the Vision Alignment System for an optimized view of components and substrates.
