Hello Reese, You may want to check out MIRTEC's MV-7 machine. It is simple to use, like your YESTech M1 (we looked at YESTech before selecting MIRTEC). But unlike the M1, the MIRTEC MV-7 has five 2 meg cameras, and a laser inspection option as wel

An extraction system is not a good comparison. The extractor itself is not where they make their money. It’s off of the consumables filters etc. Aois and other larger capital equipment there is no other income stream after the sale other than a few p

Hi aj, We recently purchased an AOI machine. While doing the first pass research to see which machines to put through a head to head competition I discovered a major improvement in the programming for newer machines. If you buy used, get one that

I have developed an application to help the ease of image set backups for YesTech AOI systems. I'm sure many CM's like to keep their scanned image sets for future reference, and manually moving those files over and over wastes time, and increases th

Most in the forum with AOI experience would say that Mirtec and Yestech as pretty close. If you have Yestech representation but no Mirtec rep, your question is basically answered. Regardless of the machine you purchase, you WILL require assistance fr

We currently use a YesTech M1 system and we are looking to buy another. Two important areas to look at when pursuing AOI equipment: 1) Camera resolution 2) Light sources Depending on your needs, camera resolution can be important depending on the si

We have 3 inline Yestech systems in our facility. One system being used pre reflow for paste inspection and the other two for parts and solder. The systems work great for paste inspection (Better than what the sales guy told us). They are also very g

If he is the same Martin Gershenson who works for Christopher, then I'de believe he's being sneaky. We demoed one of their units three years ago, along with Mirtech and YesTech. Of the three, they were the only ones who wouldn't let us experiment w

We use our Yestech and Mirtec to do that same thing. Verify the lead is in the hole and check the solder fillet. This is done as part of our normal solder inspection for mixed technology high runners. You may not be able to put together a program

In circuit testing is expensive up front because of the fixture cost but the tests are fast. AOI programs can be develpoed in less than a day but take longer to run. If you have good test coverage, in circuit would be a better choice in my opinion-if
