DIY BGA Rework Station | T8280 Preheater + IR6500 Top Heater + PSoft Control

In this video, I show my DIY BGA rework station built from affordable and widely available parts. The bottom heater is based on a T8280 infrared preheater, the top heater comes from an IR6500 station, and everything is controlled using a PC410 ramp-soak controller, a REX-C100 PID, and PSoft software on a PC. This setup gives me full control over temperature profiles, independent top and bottom heating, and repeatable reflow results — at a fraction of the cost of a professional BGA rework station. 🔧 Main Components Used: • T8280 IR preheater (bottom heater) • IR6500 upper infrared heating head • PC410 temperature controller • REX-C100 PID controller • Solid-state relays (SSR) • K-type thermocouples • PSoft profiling software 📊 Features: • Independent top and bottom heating • Full temperature profiling (ramp, soak, peak) • PC control and data logging • Repeatable BGA reflow cycles • Budget-friendly DIY solution This station is used for BGA reballing, GPU reflow, console repair, and laptop chipset repair. If you’d like to see follow-up videos with: ✔ Wiring diagrams ✔ Controller configuration ✔ Temperature tuning ✔ Real GPU / console reball jobs Let me know in the comments. Thanks for watching!
