I tested out the OK unit and found it to be a "down and dirty" rework machine that will do BGAs if demeanding thermal requirements are not needed. My largest concern was the lack of bottom side preheat. I have recently purchased the Air-Vac DRS24 a

Michael, We have a DRS-24 and are very happy with it. Look at the wobble in the nose cone that holds the nozzles and make sure it does not move. This will degrade your placement acuracy. The machine is very process oriented meaning that you can not

Consider how the vast majority of PCBs with BGAs are produced. Forced air convection. Anything that comes closer to duplication of the original soldering profile is what you desire. Did they build it with IR or Convection? The process engineer wa

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

what are your grading criterias? All of these work pretty good but have differences in the "bells and whistles" I like the Air-Vac DRS24 (no exp. with the 22) because of the large under heater and thermo-couple control. but it is very slow and costl

Hello - I am currently evaluating uBGA rework and X-Ray inspection solutions. I would like any advice/warnings etc. regarding suppliers and equipment. I have already researched through the threads in this forum and have created a list of recommended

When we need to apply paste during BGA rework we normally order a stencil from our stencil vendor. In most cases all we need to do is tell them the assembly and location plus quantity and they do the rest for us. Usually we'll have several types of a
