These guys aren't cheap but the product works well.

I'm sure there are few systems in use out there.

Subject: [TN] BGA rework system


Hi All,

I'm looking for any recommendations on BGA rework  systems. I'd appreciate
all comments, pro or con, about any systems that you  have used.....Air-Vac,
Metcal, APE, etc.

I work in a small engineering development lab where I assemble and rework
prototype PCBA's. I'm also curious if anyone uses these rework systems for
assembling boards from scratch as opposed to using some form of a small
bench-top oven. I don't see why it would be an issue with putting down 3 or
4  BGA's with one. Any comments?

And what about bench-top ovens? Anyone familiar with an oven that would be
suitable for a small lab?

Regards,
Bob Walker
