Rework Stations

Find your perfect Rework equipment from Weller

Printed circuit boards assemblies have strongly changed in the last years, with smaller components and thermally heavier boards. On top of this, lead-free soldering alloys are usually adding complexity to the process. It's crucial having everything is needed to correctly run a rework procedure without risks.

Weller's rework stations, desoldering stations and hot-air stations are specially designed for professional repair work on electronic assemblies - for industrial production technology, for the repair sector and for laboratory work. With rework stations, hot-air stations and desoldering irons from Weller you are well-equipped to run your rework procedures like reballing, de-soldering, hot air and soldering processes. Are you ready?

Desoldering applications

• If solder joints or solder residues need to be removed from assemblies or removed from the board completely
• Efficiently remove THT components with high process control
• Remove extremely delicate SMT components using hot air with ultra precision
• Desoldering braid for thorough cleaning of the pad
• Remove contacts with care and clean them with ease

Hot air applications

• Efficiently replace polarized components like diodes, ICs, capacitors, connectors and many others
• Easily redo cold solder joints by reheating the solder paste to create the perfect connection of the component and the board
• Replacing bad parts that were not recognized during the IC manufacturing process
• Remove or reposition incorrectly glued components by heating up the hot glue

Rework applications

• Combine soldering, desoldering and hot air in one rework station
• Efficiently remove components with high process control
• Easily redo cold solder joints by reheating the solder paste
• Solder with highest precision to replace components

What are the Benefits of Rework?

Re-Soldering: 
Repairing imperfect solder joints due to assembly errors or temperature fluctuations

Remove solder bridges: 
Dissolve unwanted solder drops that connect points that should be isolated from each other

Replacement of faulty components: 
Replacing components which are broken due to natural wear, corrosion or other factors

Engineering parts changes: 
Replacing components to newer revisions due to engineering changes
