Ditto to everything said. If everything in the process is correct you will have good success at 25 mil but it will take much care. I have done 20 mil on this type of printer but, as Steve says, I wouldn't want to on a daily basis. Those wipe-offs a

I have evaluated SRT, Air-Vac and Conceptronic rework stations. All three machines offer great BGA and Micro BGA rework capability. But the one I have preferred is the Conceptronic Freedom 2000, as a matter of fact I have purchased two freedom 2000 i

There is a wide range of price points and configurations for such equipment. RFA (Read the Fine Archives) and contact the suppliers (supplier lists are in SMTnet and "SMT" & "Circuits Assembly" etc magazines) and get back to us with specific question
