Can anybody give me feed back on the pro and cons of using Pace, OK, Hakko, Metcal, etc... equipment in their rework processes? I need to set up a low volume rework station for mixed technology boards. Would appreciate any suggestions.

The Metcal will run you around $5,000.00. The Pace is over $6,000.00. Check out Hakko model 852/853 for under $2,000.00 If your in the NewEngland area call us we sell them also.

The machine has good enough specifications for general BGA rework. Yes, it looks like a copy, and is similar to a number of rework stations. Your problem might be getting spare parts for this machine once in use. If it does not have remote TC, you mi

Anyone have any recommendations for hot air, hand held rework stations? We currently use Hakko for leaded assembly. We already have a sniper for bga rework.

Hi Everyone I recently started a new position at a small company. One of my tasks is to get a Hakko FR1418 rework station up and running. Unfortunately they do not have the "Software Protection Key". The machine does not operate without it. Hakk

Weller and Hakko have some good soldering stations, hot air SMD rework system and BGA rework systems: http://www.wellersoldering.blogspot.com/

The high thermal mass of metal core boards makes them difficult to heat with hot air convection heating or IR. So, edge heaters are used for effective heating of heavy core circuit boards. Hakko and VJ Electronix offer edge heaters. We imagine othe
