Rework out of the Box!
With the compact Ersa Hybrid Rework System HR 200, surface mount components up to a size of 30 x 30 mm can be soldered and desoldered. Unpacking, placing, soldering – that’s how easy rework functions today!
15 years ago, with the introduction of the first IR system, Ersa entered into the challenging field of rework. This meant no less than having to continuously adapt to the changing demands placed on the rework technology by the ever more complex boards and assemblies. Today, with over 6,000 installed units, from simple solutions for individual work places up to semiautomatic systems, Ersa offers a worldwide unique range of systems and is, undoubtedly, the current leader in rework technology.
New in the Ersa world of rework is the HR 200, weighing in at only 3.7 kg and, because of its small footprint, usable almost anywhere. And to start reworking, it does not need much preparation: unpacking, placing, and soldering – and that is why Ersa calls this version of rework system “rework out of the box”.
The Ersa Hybrid Rework System HR 200 features a 400 W hybrid high-performance heating element, with which SMT components of up to 30 x 30 mm can be soldered and desoldered. Also available for the system is a powerful 800 W IR bottom heater, which ensures that the assembly is being warmed right through. The necessary power of the upper and lower heaters can be adjusted via a selector switch in four heating levels, with the activation being per foot switch. Thus, both hands stay free and unencumbered, so as to be able to safely remove with the proper tooling a component during desoldering.
Depending on the type of assembly and on the power settings, components are soldered or desoldered in about 60 to 180 seconds. During work stoppages, the underside heater will automatically switch into the standby modus, saving precious resources. The assembly is positioned by the integrated board holder at the correct height between the heaters. For an optimal configuration of the system, Ersa recommends an optional cooling fan, a thermocouple and a temperature measuring unit. As a further option, a reflow process camera is available. With the “out of the box” version HR 200, Ersa complements its rework family by a very compact model, which just as the larger units convinces with top technology and an attractive price-performance ratio, and which delivers excellent results on even demanding rework applications with a high degree of repeatability.
