Video Demonstrations & PresentationsNearly 1/2 Million Views! The Best Solution for SMD, SMT, BGA Rework and Repair and PCB Preheating
Videos: How to Solder & De-Solder & Preheat BGA's, SMD's, QFN's & More.
Video: How to Use Solder
Paste. SMD
Placement & Soldering With a Hot Air Pencil &
Solder Paste. This short "how to"
video familiarizes the viewer with actual
placing and soldering SMD devices using a
ZT-2 Hot AirPencil
and
Solder Paste.
(Note: Video shows traditional 63/37
solder paste, but
RoHS lead-free solder
alloys also work just
as well. Importance of ramping, preparing the
PCB, applying solder paste, hot air reflow of
the SMD, clean-up & inspection.
For those interested is "seeing" how easy
it is using solder paste at the bench instead of
solder wire, this is the video demonstrations
you've been waiting for.
And you will like this: all
equipment, tools and supplies shown in the video are
included in our popular
Zephyrtronics Systems.
Video: 5 minutes.

Video:
Remove SMD Chip Quick @ 150°CThis short video demonstrates
how to de-solder and remove SMD's in
less than 3 minutes through the synergy of
LowMelt®
Desolder &
AirBath Preheaters.
Technicians can confidently remove SMT chip (QFP's, PLCC's, SOIC's SOL's SOJ's
&
sockets) without specialty
nozzles at below 150°C!
Learn how to remove any chip
quickly without burning boards, lifting
pads or chip damage. through the Science
of Zephyrtronics™ now utilized daily by
NASA, Motorola, Hewlett-Packard and the
Department of Defense. For more details,
see our
Systems Guide.
Video: 5 minutes.
Video: The Science
of Low Temperature Soldering & De-Soldering:
This video
teaches how to place, remove, rework
and repair SMD's and Thru-Hole Devices
including ceramic capacitors, glass diodes, flex
circuits and resistors without damage to the substrate,
its pads, traces or the chips...when the "science" is on
your side!
Using animation and charts, the video
teaches the three critical thermal zones that
encompass most PCB's during production and how
these same 3 zones apply to PCB's at a bench in
prototyping, rework and repair.

Video:
The 4 PCB Preheat Methods. This comparative video juxtaposes the 4 current
methods of preheating PCB's spotlighting their
drawbacks and advantages. The viewer sees use of
hot plates, infrared (IR) preheating, industrial
ovens and the popular bottom-side forced
convection (AirBaths™)
along with comparative charts and graphs.
The video clearly demonstrates why
bottom-side, forced convection method became the first choice of electronic
manufacturers around the globe, why it is more effective and better suited
to PCB prototyping, rework and low volume production runs when soldering &
desoldering SMD, BGA, QFN & Thru-Hole chips. Duration: 9
minutes.

The ABC's of PCB Holders:
This comparative video details the
advantages, versatility of
our
ABC Series of Adjustable
Board Cradles over other PCB
fixtures. and shows pitfalls and limitations of inferior holders,
how they punish PCB techs waste time (money) and
hurt productivity at the bench during PCB prototyping &
rework.
Witness the eyebrow-raising and
uncanny multiple functions and utilities
that made the ABC Series the most
popular PCB holders on the planet for
nearly 20 years. There's a lot more than
just meets the eye with these
transforming ABC Adjustable Board
Cradles. Duration: 4 minutes.
Video: BGA DeSoldering & Removal
Demonstration With NASA Commentary:This short, but informative video demonstrates quality
and ease of soldering, desoldering, and BGA removal in less than 5 minutes. Thermal profiling is taught with ramp,
preheat, soak and final solder reflow, plus removal of a BGA,
QFN, CSP or any SMT device.
Video shows board prep, fluxing, chip
alignment, soldering, desoldering & PCB clean-up
after chip removal. The video shows quality
PCB inspection after desoldering a BGA as it
actually lifts off the PCB...hands-free!
Photo and observations from NASA
are included in the video.
