Hi Jay, Have you used those methods before? The muffin tin is a good idea as long as you buy enough. Thanks

Yes, I've used the muffin tins. I drained a solder drag pot. Steve makes a good point about the drain valve. When I drain my pot, I will be scooping out the solder and filling my tins.

Yea, we've bought lots of feeders from these guys and had good luck and response - they seem always able to meet a tight date and I think they will even rent feeders for special jobs if needed. (I have no affiliation with them).

mmh, good point, our current board is not that big, however, I'm wondering what is a common derate number on big boards?

Follow your component supplier recommendations. For instance: Xilinx says their lead-free alloy for their BGA spheres is SnAgCu, and liquidous is 217*C and they want you to peak at 230 - 235*C for good wetting according to their reflow guidelines.

There is a stencil cutting machine in the industry which utilizes a water jet to deliver a Laser beam for cutting stencils. There are no machines of this type in the states. The quality is no better than a Laser cut stencil using a good Laser System.

Thanks Amol, You brought up some good ideas that we'll use. Has anyone ever heard of under filling the BGA (after reflow) with a material that cures, then thermal removing the BGA to check the acual size of the ball to pad?

Thanks Patrick. I understand your points. It gives us good results. I didn't know about the flux activity on Gold finish. It's a pleasure to get this kind of explanantion.
