A method and apparatus for component to substrate assembly permits in situ reflow of a flip chip (or other suitable component) in a manner which promotes proper settling of the component as solder begins to flow at the contact points between the component and the substrate. The component is heated and held by a pick-up head while applying downforce that serves to level the component. The initiation of solder reflow can be detected with the pick-up head by sensing a decrease in the downforce. Downforce applied to the component with the pick-up head is then decreased and the retention mechanism holding the component is released, freeing the component from the pick-up head and permitting the component to properly self-center using the liquid solder's surface tension.
