Air Vac DRS25. Hands down the best rework EQ. (my humble opinion, based on my own experience with rework EQ going back 15 years +) Right in your budget. Complete capability for rework. SMD, BGA, POP. Full profiling capability. Massive bottom heati

| Hey All you Einsteins out there!! | | I gotta' problem...('course you do Steve, or you wouldn't be bugging the TechNet now would you?) I had a phone call from a acquaintance of mine wanting to bring two prototype boards over to rework a BGA socket

0.4 W/m�C [er sumpin like thet]. But it's real brittle. Sofer rework, ya can just pop that sucker [component to be replaced] right arf.

Phil is correct in his description of proper rework technique. Possible explanations of the reason for popping of your BGA are: * Thermal cycling of components cause them to flex on a different point in the cycle that the board possibly resulting in

Would like to ask end users or those with experience using infra red rework equipment (specifically when the top heater is IR) the following: 1. Can you successfully rework Package On Package (PoP) type devices? With heat directed through the packa

Hi Russ, Thanks for the input. The squeeze out we are reworking is very very thin since it has been flattened so it is actually easier to remove than usual but I agree, with a pad this small it could exert a bit of stress on the bond line if rework

I work for a contract manufacture of PCB's, we are also in the BGA rework business. We see all kinds of different size boards, as well as different types of BGA's and micro BGA's. We selected the Conceptronics Freedom 2000 over the Air Vac and SRT. T

Masdi, Try board shunts. They are hi-temp rubber strips with grooves cut. They can be popped on and off with ease and are much faster than taping and considerably cheaper. They also work great for masking goldfingers prior to wave soldering. Contac

My experience with different size boards and pre-heaters. The perfect world (right?) you would saturate the complete pcb with bottom pre-heat. But it is difficult with repair and rework equipment, not to mention the expense and foot print of large pr
