1. A system comprising:
a process chamber apparatus for soldering comprising a provisioning zone and a working zone of at least one process chamber; and
a device for displacing at least one assembly between the provisioning zone and the working zone, the device comprising:
at least one displacement device, wherein the at least one assembly carries out, at least in sections, a displacement movement, or such a displacement movement can be carried out, such that the at least one assembly is displaced by means of a force which is transmitted or generated by the displacement device and acts on the assembly;
a supporting device comprising at least one bearing means, wherein the at least one assembly is configured to be arranged on the at least one bearing means at least in sections during the displacement movement and is mounted on the supporting device by means of the at least one bearing means so as to be movable at least in the direction of the displacement movement,
wherein, on an end region of the supporting device, at least one restraining means is configured to be arranged, which is movable between a blocking position and a release position, wherein in the blocking position a movement of at least one assembly carried by the supporting device is inhibited in the direction of the displacement movement and, in the release position, a movement of at least one assembly carried by the supporting device is released in the direction of the displacement movement.
