How To Reflow Solder With A Heat Gun

How to reflow a video card with a cheap heat gun.

How to reflow solder with a heat gun. I choose the heat gun method. The chip in question on my unit isnt the gpucpu but a smaller simpler chip. AIR GUN AUTOMATIC SLEEP FUNCTION - The hot air gun blows at 120Lmin the automatic function is a safety measure that ensures the heat is automatically cut off when the air gun is in its holder.

Keeping the GPU chip at a distance of two inches from the heat gun blow the heat over it continuously for one minute. Im trying to do this cheap quick and hacky. A reflow should be done with the right tools only.

So my question is. The braid should be laid over the bridged pins and the tinned iron turned almost parallel to the PCB as it is applied to the braid. The heat gun produces a lot of air that can blow these parts away.

I read the posts on the net about baking it in the oven and hitting it with a heat gun. That process should have never been called a reflow. Then carefully removereposition the part you want to rework using tweezers by nudging or grabbing the part.

We take full responsibility for our products. Is this a safe substitute to a reflow oven for a one time job. Its just these two that are a problem.

Well not likely -you would damage the chip before you get solder balls to melt - even when removing old solder you should not stay in one place with your soldering gun for longyou should move it constantlyChip will be damaged 220 C and melting point is 213-217C so when using heatgun still pre-heat the board approx-100C use flux and bake board before reflow. Saying the magic spell meltum meltum meltum move the nozzle back and forth until the solder begins to flow the solder should appear shiney and molten. To sum it up the reflow soldering process is ideal for soldering a large number of surface-mount electrical components on a board.
