COMPONENT REWORK NOZZLE

摘要

An apparatus for a component rework nozzle includes a nozzle with a proximal end spaced apart from a distal end along an axis. The proximal end is sized to partially enclose a component during a component rework process. The component is disposed on a substrate by way of a plurality of solder joints. The apparatus includes an indentation defined in a side of the nozzle. The side of the nozzle is parallel to the axis. The indentation is shaped to maintain a separation between the nozzle and a neighboring component. The neighboring component is disposed adjacent to the component on the substrate. The apparatus includes a plurality of notches disposed on the proximal end of the nozzle. The plurality of notches are formed to balance heat distribution, during the component rework process, across the component.
