Murray Percival, Michigan-based supplier to the US Midwest‘s electronics industry, has announced the sale of a Kurtz Ersa HR-550 BGA Rework System to Acromag. Also based in Michigan, US, Acromag is a designer of analog and digital control products for the industrial I/O and defense OEMs markets. The company built its reputation designing critical measurement instrumentation equipment for the petrochemical and aerospace industries.
“Before we purchased the Ersa HR-550, we were unable to complete BGA rework in house and it was causing significant time delays,” said James Platte, Quality Assurance Manager at Acromag. “When Matt Percival approached us with the HR550, the demo of the system showed superior technology, and the software demonstrated ease of use over other systems we had looked at, so we decided to move forward. Since adding the HR550 to our line, we are now able to rework BGA style components here, which is reducing downtime.”
According to Murray Percival, Ersa’s HR 550 Hybrid Rework System offers high performance with camera and software, as well as assisted assembly placement, high-precision mechanics and a completely operator-friendly user interface.
