See Fiske first line. I'd bet You are bending or catching the assembly in the ICT. How many probes at 8OZ each? do you use on that ICT? 800 probes = 400lbs. See "Flexure induced failure of BGA solder joints" by Compaq Houston TX

Try this: * Run the board through your reflow oven set for a "normal" recipe, but with the cooling section turned off. * Pick the BGA from the board while the solder is still liquid using tweezers [or similar tool].

Rework is typically done by heating the BGA to 170-180C to first scrape off the fillet. Then, heat to above reflow, and lift the BGA. Then, collapse the solder with heat and flux. Then, back down at 170-180C, scrape off the underfill from the boar

Is anybody doing BGA soldering water clean solder. If yes how you are ensure cleaness. We have boards with Four BGA and 2000 chip and ICs.We are processing with no clean solder but we are getting bad wetting so now we are planning to switch to water

We can clean the blank out of LARGE BGA. [Cleaning small BGA is a whoooole nuther issue.] But before we get into that, what's the problem and its breadth? Why are you getting poor wetting? What's the story on the components, board, process materia

Just how cold do you store your paste? And what are your solder paste reps like? Here they fall over each other giving support for their paste. And have you seen the problem with flux separation or have you only heard about it?

How do people prepare there solder paste for screen print? We currently remove them from the fridge and mix them in a 500g solder paste tub mixer to mix the flux and paste together we waste to much paste at the moment as we only use the tub for 1

why not use a paste where it requires no refrigeration at all cheers Greg

Which paste are you referring to?
