Chosen Solution
I was hoping some of you who do micro soldering, BGA reballing specifically, could recommend some good quality stencils (for iPhones mainly)? I would like the range 5-14, if possible, and it must ship internationally. My current ones only do 6-X, and they’re poor quality. Bought years ago from a random seller on eBay. This time I’d like something that’ll last!
I personally have a set of Qian Li stencils I bought piecemeal. I believe they are mostly “Bumblebee” series stencils which I think is basically all the chips for a particular phone or generation of phone on one stencil. But I recommend getting the “3D” stencils if you can find them. I just couldn’t find them for all models. They have a vague cutout of the chips outline, or some kind of raised edge so the chips stay in place better. I also greatly prefer stencils with square holes rather than round ones. It seems counterintuitive. But the balls drop onto the chip much more readily.
