I did calibration for the fixed camera according to the Training Center System's book. But it seemed it is for diciding the heads'offset, very few is for camera itself. When calibrate, It does recognize the calibration tool ad finish. However when te

I love my Pace ST-30. Not too expensive and works a charm. Tips are also reasonable at $6-$15.

I know what you mean. Saw this in systems where cooling was not done through the reflow nozzle (i.e. PACE). What happens is that as you run 1-2 profiles, the metal parts along the pathway of the hot air (before it comes out of the nozzle) act as he

I just purchased some PACE ST-25 systems for basic soldering and they work great. It was a deal at $155 each and they heat up FAST! Tips are around $6 each so the whole system is affordable. A step up for rework jobs would be the Metcal MX systems.

I need to purchase a rework tool mainly for QFP's including 30mm x 30mm. I was looking at a Metcal QX2 and a Pace TF200. I would welcome any comments on these two products or any other suggestions. Also, is a preheater necessary?

MikeL, I came across your post. We are also a small company looking at rework systems for BGA/QFN/CSP. .5mm worse case pitch. We had a PACE 1700 on trial and we found it clunky and unreliable. We also evaluated a PDR 410 system and found it better

Hi Guys, Anyone have "comments/testimony" on having possible quality level achievements, for AQL=0.1, C=0 ??? Is this a realistic "1st Pass Yield" expectation? how about for OQC submission Lots from production? especially in a high-mix, low-volu
