A component joining apparatus, which can realize positioning between a component and a substrate with high accuracy by avoiding influence of thermal expansion of the substrate at the time of joining the component to the substrate by heating at a high temperature, includes a component supply head holding a component and a heating stage heating and holding a substrate, in which a heating region where the heating stage contacts the substrate includes a joining region of the substrate in which the component is joined, and the substrate is larger than the heating stage and a peripheral part of the substrate does not contact the heating stage.

A method for a heating device suitable for heating at least one soldered joint between an electronic component including at least a first contact mound and a printed circuit board. The soldered joint on the one hand securing the electronic component to the printed circuit board and on the other hand, while providing electrical continuity, the electronic component also having an electronic-component width, and an electronic-component thickness, wherein it includes an electrical-connection suitable for being coupled to an electrical power supply and a heater suitable for reaching a temperature at least equal to the melting point of the solder.

A device that is a handheld circular heating element for use in the construction industry is described. Specifically the device is useful for applying heat uniformly to a two-piece membrane for separation of the outer layer to allow the inner layer to be exposed. The device includes a handle, an electrical supply, an on/off switch and a heating element. The device uses electricity to heat the heat-emitting burner of the heating element, which is then placed next to the membrane. As the membrane is warmed, the two layers of the membrane are able to be separated, which exposes the inner membrane.
