Automated Placement/Rework Station
December 31, 1969 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
The Pinnacle 500R rework system is an entry-level unit able to handle boards up to 14 x 20" and 2" high components. It is said to be specifically designed to rework µBGAs, BGAs and QFPs. The system aligns, places and reflows surface mount components. It includes an independent heating nozzle and vacuum pickup tube, thermal cycle libraries, and look up/down split-image component placement. Its Windows-based software program allows the user to create a rework profile and store it in memory. A profile lock prevents unwanted changes, while reportedly allowing easy selection of profiles and repeatable placements.
