You'll not find any solvent, which removes cured epoxy and not attack the board material as well. If there are traces underneath the surface mount components even mechanical removal of the epoxy may mess up your boards. As a mechanical tool I recomme

All SM machines pick components with a vacuum nozzle. Most likely the component is picked in the geometric center, which may not be the center of gravity ( SOT 23, SO 89 ). Any other pick position than the center may be taught upon requirement, but y
