'Hege is checking in for the DRS25 by Air Vac. Forced Air Convection reflow, and huge heating capacity for bottom side, ensuring minimum Delta T across the PCB during the process. Have 3 of these machines constantly in use for the last 2 and a half

There are several out there. We will be doing some proprietary BGA installation in-house and I need a rework station. Has anyone had any experience with Focal Spot RD-500? Air-Vac DRS25? Or is there a better system out there for occasional to light u

I use the exact same paste flux that we use in our solder paste for SMT manufacturing with great success. I have also had great success using the Air Vac DRS Hot Gas units with the same size BGA's. If to much heat is applied to fast to the BGA be it
