Overview

PDR IR-Q3 BGA Rework Station

The IR-Q3 is a semi-automatic rework station combining focused infrared heating, three-zone board preheat and split-beam optical alignment. Verify thermal control and placement on the actual unit, not only the model sheet.

PDR IR-Q3 Technical Specifications

Board and component rangeMaximum PCB 300 × 450 mm; component size 1 × 1 mm to 55 × 55 mm in PDR's technical data.
Heating150 W focused infrared top heater with up to Ø70 mm spot; 2,800 W three-zone medium-wave PCB preheater.
AlignmentSplit-beam prism alignment with up to 50× magnification; published placement accuracy up to 10 µm under manufacturer conditions.
Thermal sensingNon-contact IR sensing for the component, wire thermocouple sensing for the PCB and four TC channels in the published specification.
Manufacturer model data · Important: model-level figures and features are conditional manufacturer information, not guarantees for a particular used PDR IR-Q3 unit.

Configuration Must Be Verified

The actual PDR IR-Q3 quote should identify the top heater, three-zone preheater, prism alignment, thermocouples, software, optional camera/cooling, voltage and visible condition.

Buyer decision guide

When PDR IR-Q3 Makes Sense — and When It May Not

PDR IR-Q3 selection should begin with production requirements and evidence, not with a model name alone.

Good fit: controlled reworkUse separate board and component temperature control to assess repeatable thermal profiles.
Good fit: optical placementVerify split-beam alignment on the actual package and board geometry.
Check carefully: optionsSide-view camera and assisted cooling are optional, not assumed on a used unit.
May not fit: oversized assembliesCompare the 300 × 450 mm board and 55 × 55 mm component limits with the real application.
Typical Applications

Typical Applications for PDR IR-Q3

PDR IR-Q3 should be evaluated against the buyer’s board dimensions, BGA package, thermal limits, alignment repeatability, flux process and rework evidence. The final application fit depends on the evidence for the specific unit.

Before quotation

Three PDR IR-Q3 Buyer Questions

These questions keep the quotation scope connected to the buyer’s real SMT process.

1

Which boards, packages and thermal limits must the IR-Q3 handle?

PDR IR-Q3 buyers should confirm this with actual-machine evidence before quotation.

2

Can the offered machine show split-beam alignment and recorded four-channel thermal profiles?

PDR IR-Q3 buyers should confirm this with actual-machine evidence before quotation.

3

Are the optional camera, cooling and flux-application accessories included?

PDR IR-Q3 buyers should confirm this with actual-machine evidence before quotation.

Running video confirmation

PDR IR-Q3 Running Video Review

Before shipment, review the relevant power-on, movement, operating state and visible condition for the specific offered unit.

This review page does not present a reference clip as proof of the actual machine. A reviewed unit-specific recording is required before it can be attached here.

  • Power-on and visible operating-state confirmation
  • heater motion, alignment, component removal/placement and profile recording
  • Unit-specific condition evidence before export packing
Running video pendingA reviewed local video is not yet attached. Open this panel for unit-specific proof.

Quotation checklist

Provide board size, component size, required thermal profile, alignment evidence, accessories, voltage and destination, required accessories and desired inspection evidence for the proposed PDR IR-Q3.

FAQ

Common questions for overseas buyers evaluating a PDR IR-Q3.

01Heating

What does the published 2,800 W figure describe?

It is the three-zone PCB preheater rating, not a promise of profile quality on a used unit.

02Alignment

Is 10 µm placement accuracy guaranteed for every board?

No. It is a manufacturer figure; verify alignment and placement on a representative assembly.

03Options

Are side-view monitoring and cooling standard?

PDR labels those capabilities optional; confirm the unit's installed scope.
