PDR Rework Systems Announces New Integrated Reball System for Rework
August 24, 2022 | PDR Rework SystemsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
PDR, a leading manufacturer of BGA rework systems, test and X-ray inspection systems since 1985, announced the release of the firm’s new integrated Reballing system for all PDR Evolution Series Rework Systems.
PDR’s latest reball system now incorporates both solder paste application and reball sphere attach in one easy-to-use system, incorporating advanced nano-technology for a clean, high precision reball method for rework.
This PDR exclusive also incorporates a conveniently integrated excess sphere recovery chamber to capture excess spheres that can easily be accessed on the reball platform for later use, or to accelerate the process when re-balling multiple BGA’s concurrently.
When used with PDR’s ThermoActive Suite Software Reballing Mode profiles, the entire process is simple to use, accurate and provides quality reballing results. This saves both time and money, as well as preventing solder sphere loss due to handling errors.
Although made specifically to integrate into PDR Systems, PDR Reball systems can be used as stand-alone devices for any reballing application where highly accurate reball applications are required.
PDR Reball System are made of high-quality materials and are manufactured with new, state-of-the-art laser technology to ensure highly accurate stencil fabrication and ultra-smooth edge/bore finishes.

I even experimented with developing photos in the bathroom, though I usually dropped the film off at a Kodak center and received the prints two weeks later, only to discover that some images were out of focus or poorly framed. Today, every smartphone contains a high-quality camera capable of producing stunning images instantly.
