Weller Hot-air stations

Find your perfect rework equipment from Weller

The assembly of printed circuit boards has changed dramatically in recent years with smaller components and thermally heavier boards. Lead-free solder alloys also generally increase the complexity of the processes. It is therefore important to have the optimum equipment for a correct and risk-free rework process.

Weller's hot air stations are specially designed for professional repair work on electronic assemblies, i.e. for industrial production technology, for the repair sector and for work in the laboratory. With the hot air stations from Weller, you are ideally equipped for all rework processes such as reballing, desoldering, hot air or soldering.

Desoldering applications at a glance

• Efficient removal of THT components with high process control
• Removal of extremely sensitive SMT components with hot air and maximum precision
• Desoldering wire for thorough cleaning of the connection surface
• Careful removal of contacts and subsequent cleaning

Hot air applications at a glance

• Efficient replacement of polarized components such as diodes, ICs, capacitors, connectors, etc.
• Easily restore cold solder joints by reheating the solder paste to create a perfect connection between the component and the board
• Replacement of defective parts that were not detected during the IC manufacturing process
• Removal and repositioning of incorrectly bonded components through heating

When is rework required?

Re-soldering:

Repairing imperfect solder joints due to assembly errors or temperature fluctuations

Removing solder bridges:

Removing unwanted solder drops that connect points that should be isolated from each other

Replacing faulty components:

Replacing components that are defective due to natural wear, corrosion or other factors

Changes to technical parts:  

Replacing components to current revisions due to technical changes
