We recently purchased a Mirtec AOI machine, it take a bit to program but overall we are pleased. The machine has a downward looking camera, we have had some issues with the machine not catching opens. When a IC has it's legs bent straight up off th

I have experience programming and using the yestech system in a high volume high mix environment. The system seemed to work well until I used a more sophisticated system. When I changed jobs and had another opportunity to spec. in paste and post-r

Hello Saaitk, I was recently tasked with selecting an AOI system for our company. We are a low to medium manufacturer as well. I looked at several different vendors and narrowed the field to Mirtec and Yestech. I found that the programming was v

Hello James. I've got a YesTech YTV-2050 system at work with one top-down camera, and 1 side-view camera for each of the four sides. I do have the side view cameras being used for automated side inspection. There are some parts with markings that are

We use a YesTech M1 system. I have been pleased with it's performance and feel it has done fairly well being that it only has one vertical camera. There are different algorithms you can use to compensate for the lack of angled cameras to catch some

Dominik, Pixel size should not be the main criteria for selecting an AOI. I have a customer that has 2 MVP and they say the solder test are good but part reconigtion is not so good. You also say you need some flexibility on software. I also have

What Derek means is, you will have to train new templates from time to time, something you have to do with every AOI. Because there is no established method for marking parts, these markings can change. For instance, the text on chip resistors coul

Thomas, We evaluated several AOI machines and narrowed the field to two, YESTech and MIRTEC. We had an opportunity to work with both of these machines on our production floor. In our experience, the MIRTEC machine simply outperformed the competitive

We are a low to mid range manufacturer as well. I looked at several different vendors incuding; Mirtec, Viscom, Marantz, Omron, VI Tech, Orbotech and Yestech. We selected Mirtec. As a mid range manufacturer, one of my main concerns was quick and eas

YesTech makes a pretty nice machine, the software is pretty simple to learn and use. My shop runs on average 3 or so new products a week, so quick and easy programming is a must. Most programs can be done in an hour, usually less, depending on how
