I would suggest you look a the Sikama International Falcon 5 benchtop reflow system, Economical, reliable and good value. You may be able to get one on the used equipment market.

Hello, Could you please tell me if there is any industry standard specifying QFN to PCB standoff after soldering? Is any gap allowed? Browsing IPC-A-610, I have found nothing. Any input would be appreciated. Regards

"To qualify the equipment for production use, you need to only do IQ, OQ." Even in a scenario where you're installing a piece of duplicate equipment, how do you demonstrate (and record) that the new machine provides acceptable product?
