There are no BGA rework stations in that price range that I would consider for purchase. (or did you miss a zero in your cost estimate?) In order to have placement, and sufficient heating for proper BGA rework (top and bottomside)you're going to hav

we have omron, before buy I have evaluated lot of other machines, what I like most is the three ring at different angle lighting which allows pseudo 3-d solder joint evaluation and historgams with statistics, you can see out of total solder joints ho

If it's really low volume I would only invest in a stencil printer and convection reflow oven to start with. If you want to go really low budget get a manual unit such at one from Transition Automation. Make up some really good shop aids and have s

| Steve, | I know it is tempting to go for the cheapest method of applying conformal coatings but I must warn you. If you are a contract manufacturer then you don't want to limit yourself in the types of coatings you can work with. Just as soon as yo

Your kinda vague on your description, How many components per hour, how many circuits per a day, week, month? what kinds and size of parts.? For a PNP setup for smt boards you will need a stencil printer(possibly manual or full auto like a DEK, 1 o
