Custom BGA SIEVE ?

[George_Bud]

It is possible to make a custom bga sieve ? And if yes, how ?

Is there a reason why you need a custom one? You can find oem bga stencils, but it is rarely the case with the repair work. You could draw your own and ask a machining company to mill it out. The problem with that is you ability to draw and their accuracy

Yea...I know. But I wanted to get it for free.

Unless you're into re-balling, there is no way you can get that for free. The stencil is the cheapest part of the repair. You will need a bga rework station for  you to even use it

I want to branch out to consoles ( like playstation, xbox ), and I have the equipment for it, the only thing I dont have is the lead balls and that sieve. Do you know how much costs a good reballing station in my country ? I'll tell you...is it not cheap. And I am only a student. With potato money

If you want to properly repair any bga chip, you will have to replace it and not reball it. Reballing is an old technique and very misunderstood. Majority of bga failure situations will happen under the silicon and not the chip. You can reball the chip, but not under the silicon as they are just too small and not accessible
