When a PLCC 52 comes off the board, every lead row has to reflow at the same moment, otherwise pads lift. The SMTC-117 rework tip of the SMTC series sits over the component as a closed square and delivers 412 °C to all four sides at once.

Benefits

  • Square geometry matched to the lead pattern of PLCC 52
  • Fixed tip temperature of 412 °C with no calibration, set by the cartridge itself
  • Fast heat-up and quick thermal recovery in the Metcal MX system
  • Works with the MX-H1-AVA and MX-RM3E handpieces
  • Cartridge can be swapped during work, sold per piece
