Thats because Glenbrook Reps both. The Ersascope was the original and still is the best bang for the buck. How do you know if you have flux residue under the bga without seeing it. Show me an xray system that can see flux residue? Again, this is a PR

We are currently examining the issue of AOI machines (both in-line and off-line) It seems that the only positive remarks I find are written by the salespeople representing AOI manufacturers. Can someone please refer me to a more neutral source? My in

First of all are you looking for a inline or a table top unit. We paid 50k for a Testronics unit and it does ok but I feel like others and that is if you have the inspection & controls in place you should be able to build quality boards by controlli

Hi everybody, First of all, to have process under 100% control you should have AOI after every active process in the pcb assembly line : - Post printing (2D or 3D Solder paste inspection machine); - Post reflow; - Post selective(wave solder). It i

I think you could look at the phenomena in two dimensions. Many of the sub-contractors in Asia are focus on low price-less demanding products. They hire operators to visually inspect the boards and sometime there is no inspection at all. On one ha
