Nozzles
December 31, 1969 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
NZ Nozzles for the company`s QX-2 convection rework tool are engineered to use a "focused-convection" design. These nozzles reportedly ensure that thermal energy is directed only to the target component, which is said to maximize efficiency and minimize board and adjacent component damage. An aperture in the nozzle allows the QX-2`s vacuum pickup to lift the component at the end of the reflow cycle. This ensures that the component is lifted off only after all solder connections have reflowed, which reportedly prevents damage to pads.
