Need some input here..... The fear is that the if we use water soluble flux at the repair operation, that the no-clean encapsulation will capture some of the organic material as it cools down and goes to its original state. The organic material wil

What system would you guys recommend as a good rework and repair system in the $10,000-$40,000 range or so? The company I work for is just starting to branch out into working with SMT components.

Thanks for the feedback. I'd still like to know what you guys think about Pace. Maybe we'll look into their MBT-250-SDPT Repair System (http://www.paceworldwide.com/_ShowSystemDetails.asp?ProductGroupID=2∏uctID=26 ). Or maybe even a very low-end R

40K most likely SRT > 40k most likely Weller Liester Hako Metcal There is a bigger list of companies that I wouldn't give the time of day to.

For what you have right now I would recommend that you use soldering iron tips that are made for component removal. until you get BGAs I wouldn't worry a whole lot about the expensive rework equipment. I would use specialty tips and a heat gun wit

Based on the components mentioned, it sounds like you need a soldering station rather than a bga rework station. The equipment mentioned would allow you to rework fine pitch QFPs and BGAs. Reworking an sot-23 using one of those systems is inefficie

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

For now, on this first board, we will be reworking components such as 0805 and 1210 size caps and resistors, along with SOT-23 and SC-70 size packages. We might eventually get into BGAs. This board will most likely be a double-sided board, probably

Trace repair is dependent upon the operator. A highly skilled operator can repair a trace with no adverse effects on assembly. IPC has a manual on reapir methods and there associated risk relating to reliabilty. I wil try and find number when time

We sell rework stations for all kind of components and boards. The systems are designed to fit a particular size board and it's very difficult to design a one size fits all system. I personally have a lot of experience reworking high mass, high hea
