The ST 925 combines three popular PACE products together into one convenient, low-cost SMT rework system.
The system is comprised of the ST 325 programmable convective/hot air rework station, the PH 100 low profile infrared preheater and the ST 500 z-axis platform.
Together, the system provides a powerful 575 Watt convective top-side heater plus a 1600 Watt infrared bottom-side preheater which allows operators to safely rework PCBs for fast, efficient soldering, rework or repair, even on the highest mass, thermally challenging, lead-free PCBs.
The ST325 is a digital, self-contained hot air rework station that is fully programmable and can be used to remove or install surface mount components when individual or multiple operations are to be run. From the front panel, the system can be used in either manual or timed modes.
The system’s adjustable stand enables hands-free operation for repetitive component removals and replacements. Over 80 quick-fit, heat focusing nozzles – e.g. single jet, box, BGA, pattern nozzles – are available for a wide variety of surface mount components.
