Can You Reflow Solder With A Heat Gun
I mean a heat gun like hot hot for removing paint and stuff.
Can you reflow solder with a heat gun. For parts with leads or low pin count solder tweezers can be very helpful. If by heatgun you mean hairdryer you might want to get a stand. It depends on the solder and the heat gun.
At reflow temperatures you should see one side dip as the IC-side solder contacts and merges with the PCB-side solder on at least one peripheral pad. Is it possible. Yes you can reflow solder with a heat gun.
It describes the four stages of reflow soldering and provides the times and temperatures for each of the four stages when using a soldering reflow oven. Before you begin soldering make sure that all the small components on your board are held down. Its the only thing you should use for reflow since you can actually.
Note if you are using a paint stripping gun from the hardware store the nozzle and potentially the air flow might be rather large. But well doesnt matter as after all the googling and search i came to the conclusion that a reflow from a heat gun almost never lasts especially done by not a pro. The hot air station has closed-loop temperature control and air volume control and interchangeable nozzles to focus the air.
The heat gun produces a lot of air that can blow these parts away. Able to reflow the GPU successfully. The four stages are.
For removing very high pin counts low temp alloy solder can be great like Chipquik. Keep heating until you see the IC level off again. You should want some extra flux however you do it for post flow cleanup if necessary.
