Centerpiece of the FINEPLACER® matrix is the highly efficient bottom heating module RB30 which sets new standards in the rework of large multilayer boards. In perfect balance with the top heating, 4200 W power guarantees a very even heat distribution when reworking large boards with massive components. Twelve segments with independently adjustable temperature zones offer perfect batch rework and pre-heating conditions when preparing several boards at a time, providing a significantly improved workflow and shortened process times.

Thanks to its modular system architecture, the FINEPLACER® matrix can be easily equipped with a wide spectrum of rework and assembly modules. This unrivaled versatility makes it the ultimate answer to the technological challenges of today and tomorrow and a truly future-proof investment.
