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

Is this problem really related to the size of the BGA OR the size/thickness of the PCB? Would I be correct in assuming that your pre-heater is small in size? Usually a board warps like this when the ramp is to great at the localized area. the imme

Good point, I am preheating for 90 sec to a temp of 170 C. (PCBA) then reflowing for 40 sec. to bring it to 215 C. I will try a softer hammer. This has been working on other assemblies with the same package however. Do you know if a water soluble

I use the exact same paste flux that we use in our solder paste for SMT manufacturing with great success. I have also had great success using the Air Vac DRS Hot Gas units with the same size BGA's. If to much heat is applied to fast to the BGA be it

You may want to tack a coup[le of leads first, making sure that the component is fully seated against the PCBA. Or what we do is apply solder to the E-Pad and the lead pads and then hit it with a "heat gun" until the solder melts on the E-Pad and th
