I am evaluating PACE IR300 rework system for micro BGA having size .85mm x 1.35mm. Is anyone out there has any experience of reworking this package size BGAs. Your comments will be appreciated.

Maxtim- I have used APE's Sniper, airvac, Mecal's 3500, PDR, Pace, and MArtin's rework stations. APE Sniper does the Job but to much automation and not user friendly software. PDR is to much IR and no convection. Metcal's work good now with the ne

Finetech wopuld be a great machine for this application due to the small component size. Great optics for the alignment. I have no affiliation with Finetech. 'Hege

To be precise, the component is a Xilinx Virtex platform FPGA with 1152 balls. We also assemble some DSPs up to 1000 balls with metal cover. At best, we can remove the components but it is almost impossible to find a working solder profile using IR.

| Does anyone have thoughts on BGA rework. We now use the OK BGA 3000 and now am considering an Infrared machine. Any thoughts? | I've used Pace, Conceptronic and, now, SRT machines. Bottom side IR is OK. Better thermal balance is achieved with hot

Hello, we do have very good results with a 'hot air' repair station, and poor results with a 'IR' repair station, but i have to say that the 'IR' station wasn't designed for leadfree use. Make sure you have a good underside heater, adjustable and

Yes, shameless. You could have come out and said that APE's equipment is the best thing since sliced bread but . . . you had to get all scientific with us. We already get bombarded by subliminal messages in commercials now, tech forums. In all ser

I'm currently researching new rework equipment, and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations. We currently have an older PACE hot air system that has had mixed results. It tends to overheat the board and IC. Is the IR any better, or has hot ai
