1. A production line for producing electronic modules, comprising:
a printed-circuit board;
at least one first-type component; and
at least one second-type component,
wherein the line comprises a first placement unit for putting the at least one first-type component in place, a general heating unit for melting a solder placed between the at least one first-type component and the printed-circuit board, a second placement unit for putting the at least one second-type components in place and a local heating unit for melting a solder placed between the at least one second-type component and the printed-circuit board, and
wherein the local heating unit comprises a pair of electrodes,
wherein each electrode of the pair of electrodes is configured to contact a lead of the second-type component so as to make an electrical current flow between the pair of electrodes via the lead of the second-type component for heating each lead of the component sufficiently in order to melt the solder located between the lead and the printed-circuit board,
wherein temperature of the electrodes is kept substantially constant and at approximately a low temperature of 40° C., and
