is infrared take care of glue ?
 

this is a big problem for us , glue around and under Ic .
I have no yet infrared solder , Planning to get one soon .
my question is about glue around and under ic .
with hot air I faced many bad experiences what I won't repeated ..
with infrared glued resist less or same as Hot air ?

Big problem in modern PCB is to apply high temperature on specific "limited" zone.

Hot Air station is more confortable, but is extremly hard to control temperature, and without preheater is almost imposible to do some jobs.

Infrared not carry about glue, efect is same, but allow you to control temperature and without air-flow , missing some negative efects what can give hot air.

And cality is important also.
Some times good cality hot air station can be better then low cality infrared station.

Infrared is not a miracle, but is usefull to have in service buth.

good quality Hot air ? which one can you advice to one ?
