Pace IR3100 Infrared BGA Rework Station
Production BGA Installation & Rework Made Easy!
The Pace IR 3100 can easily install and remove BGA, QFN, μBGA/CSP, Flip Chip and other SMD's. Featuring a 500W infrared (IR) top heater and a 1000W IR bottom preheater, the IR 3100 does not require nozzles. A specially-developed IR pyrometer provides non-contact, real-time, closed-loop temperature control throughout the reflow process. A Sodr-Cam Re- flow Camera comes standard, allowing you to watch the entire reflow process in real time. The IR 3100's newly designed Windows-based software makes profiling incredibly simple for even the most advanced applications, providing intuitive set-up, multi-stage profiling, on-the- fly profile adjustment, flux-dipping, unlimited profile storage and much more.
