I have been using an Air-Vac DRS-22 for almost two years with very good results. Once a profile is developed it is very repeatable. The DRS-22 is no longer available, however. It has been replaced by the DRS-24. Unfortunately, the DRS-24 has a lo

Hello, I need some suggestion. I want to acquire a rework station that can handle small CSPs and has a vision system, but cost is a concern. Does anyone have an opinion on the brand I should look at? I see that there are some air-vac drs22 pre-owned

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

Hi, I work for Nortel and here rework BGA'S we use DRS22 rework station and CRT 2000 X-ray inspection. The main problem is put again the BGA on the PCB because you need reboling the PCB and you could damage the soldermask. Talking about Air-vac is ve
