Need some input here..... The fear is that the if we use water soluble flux at the repair operation, that the no-clean encapsulation will capture some of the organic material as it cools down and goes to its original state. The organic material wil

I'm looking for some input on a pay scale for experienced SRT/DRS operators. They do not do any profiling or process work - only remove/site prep/replace type work, along with any 'special' jobs like trace repair, masking repair, etc. They're current

So the only difference between the "regular solderers" and the BGA people is trace repair? If that is it than you should put the pay in range with your PCB repair people. We do not pay any extra for BGA rework since all they do is wick pads (common

Hi Carlton, My name is Brian Riggs. You have an outstanding resume and credentials. I know it is really difficult to find job these days especially on the electronic side. I will not ask you to come over to UK as we are also in the same position as

What system would you guys recommend as a good rework and repair system in the $10,000-$40,000 range or so? The company I work for is just starting to branch out into working with SMT components.

Thanks for the feedback. I'd still like to know what you guys think about Pace. Maybe we'll look into their MBT-250-SDPT Repair System (http://www.paceworldwide.com/_ShowSystemDetails.asp?ProductGroupID=2∏uctID=26 ). Or maybe even a very low-end R

40K most likely SRT > 40k most likely Weller Liester Hako Metcal There is a bigger list of companies that I wouldn't give the time of day to.

For what you have right now I would recommend that you use soldering iron tips that are made for component removal. until you get BGAs I wouldn't worry a whole lot about the expensive rework equipment. I would use specialty tips and a heat gun wit

Based on the components mentioned, it sounds like you need a soldering station rather than a bga rework station. The equipment mentioned would allow you to rework fine pitch QFPs and BGAs. Reworking an sot-23 using one of those systems is inefficie

Well the powers that be actually want to go with a regular rework station, for future growth. I guess they plan on using BGAs sometime in the near future. We're also planning on using a D-Pak device in this first board. So now we're looking at the
