Omid, I have used the DRS24 for many years and have had similar problems with what you are talking about. I do not have any documents but I will tell you what I have seen. It sounds like an inconsistant collpse of the BGA. If one side of the BGA col

Adding to Dave's comments, suppliers of selective soldering machines include Air Vac and Wenesco. I've used both, to solder and de-solder larger thru hole parts, such as connectors and large IC's. They are best suited to lower volume applications, an

For now, on this first board, we will be reworking components such as 0805 and 1210 size caps and resistors, along with SOT-23 and SC-70 size packages. We might eventually get into BGAs. This board will most likely be a double-sided board, probably

| I'm trying a second time to post this very important message, to me, concerning Air-Vac's following creation. Does any own and use this stuff successfully to remove solder from 20 layer and up MLB's with .020" diameter holes? Also, is any of the ad

AJ, I have bought and used 2 DRS24's in the past. It is a good machine. (I don't think that I will bring up the fact that a certain package that I had kept shorting so I sent them a couple to help with the profile and all of them came back shorted

sant, When I worked in contract manufacturing, I used Air Vac or SRT systems which are rather large units. They are great for larger boards and BGA's. In my OEM life, I prefer smaller desk top units, which are more adapted to small boards with small

The APE machines are still OK in their place. We still have two APE machines that are over 8 years old and still are good for some processes, but have been consigned to the leaded solder rework area. We have upgraded to AirVac since the advent of le
