Aren't these BGAs? Safely removing and then also re-balling large non-socketed chips is tricky.
Do they actually have machines for this? I understand that the re-work house we use do it by hand and also spend a chunk of time inspecting the chip once removed since it's very easily damaged. Maybe there are more automated places doing this on a mass scale, we don't do it very often which might explain the general poor results.
