My suggest is using Ersa IR55A or IR650A. http://www.ersa.de/en/ If you looking for your quality, you need this system. I had try it many time, is better then hot air. and you can set the profile as you like, even Flat Peak on the Lead Free Rework.

Good luck finding used. Ersa is top quality but you pay for it. The IR from Ersa is a medium wavelength thus heating is consistent across the board despite different component densities and colors. PDR does not heat the same and thus you have to be m

The shorts happen at corner of the BGA. The PCB thickness is 1.6mm, It is a PC motherboard with all thru hole connectors mounted on.The preheating is done using IR heater and the temp is 120-160 for about 70-80 sec.I am using ERSA IR550A

Sorry for the late reply, I am an ersa dealer may I suggest mounting an alternative thermocouple attached to a DMM in close proximity to the BGA. See what the differences are in your readings from the DMM and the Digital temp reading on the IR550A. I

Can anyone tell me an approximate cost of the PDR 410 and/or ERSA IR rework station? Is the main advantage of using these systems over a hot air machine in that nozzles are not needed?

Any concerns on the IR in melting connectors etc. simply cover the part with aluminum foil. That will prevent any heat from attacking the component. The Ersa unit is in my mind the best bang for the buck.

I was quoted a new ERSA IR550_PL550 unit last year for $36,500.00. I purchase a previously owned but never used one for $28,000.00. Jerry

I have been looking into buying a rework station like ERSA or PDR. What I am questioning is how well will these systems reflow BGA's with metal top/cover that are reflective. In addition, when preheating the board would dark body packages absorb te

Thanks, We currently use Metcals for our regular work and I was looking at the ERSA system for the BGA rework. From what I have seen it seems simple to use, and since it uses IR you don�t need all the attachments for different size BGA�s. You just
