    Abstract: In a method for reworking a Ball Grid Array electronic module 201, 203, 205, by removing the solder balls from the substrate surface after one or more of the connections have been detected to be damaged. The module is immersed in a water soluble oil bath and heated to the melting point. Then a rotating brush 241, with the rotating axis perpendicular to the substrate plan, removes the solder balls and the solder material particles while the module is still immersed in the fluid.

    Abstract: A brushing system for removing unwanted particles from a substrate surface provides an epicycloidal movement of the brush 201 on the substrate. The system comprises a rotatable shaft 203 with an eccentric bore. The hub 202 of the brush can freely move inside the bore. When the shaft is rotated by a motor 204 and the brush bristles are subject to friction by engaging the substrate, the brush describes an epicycloidal movement.
