[0002] Carriers carry PCBs during SMT line production. These carriers are used repeatedly in equipment such as printers, SPI systems, AOI machines, pick-and-place machines, and reflow ovens. However, existing SMT lines often suffer from the following problems in practical use: The temperature of the carriers after passing through the reflow oven can exceed 70 degrees Celsius. Although there are external cooling fans, the temperature of the carriers themselves cannot be controlled in real time. This easily leads to printing abnormalities and misjudgments during AOI inspection, resulting in defective products that are scrapped, causing significant economic losses. Summary of the Invention
