Daan has made a valid point with regards to expertise and use of a machine. Yet I recognize that with advanced technology, trades must occur. A hghly sophisticated AOI unit can and will help reduce overall cost of production. Therefore, a need to ha

We use gerber file for pick and place in smt machines, but in aoi we use cad files. Can you please suggest me how to convert gerber file into cad file by using cadEasy software of omron.

In general, how do you guys handle Component Text from different Vendors - multiple Alternates for the same comp. code? Do you guys use the Wrong Text inspection for everything or only specific components. Curious since that is one of our top false c

Hey I'm having some issues with a YesTech YTV-1000 AOI machine. The machine isn't recognizing the X and the Y stepper motors. As far as we can tell nothing mechanical is wrong with the AOI. They are new motors and were suppose to have been programmed

We have different codes for different mfg's. Also we try to stay away from text inspection as much as possible since that is done already in incoming inspection.

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

A.O.I. machine in use by my company is made by Cyberoptics and is called a Kestra. It inspsects boards prior to the reflow oven and highligts missing parts,mis-placed parts, wrong parts( by looking at any text on the device that you define, or by ori

I will tell from my personal experience - I used Omron VT-RNS and it had issues, like the previous post. 0402 components, transistors and SMA's had problems, but when you have experience you can come up with some additional ideas (like look for the t

Interesting, the scanner based FAI systems seen more than capable of reading text from what I've seen. I saw a demo of an ALeader AOI the other day @ WNIE and that certainly identifed test on resistors, but thinking back I don't know if it was readin

Yeah, I agree with you. We do the same but Wrong Text inspection is something they have told me we would remove for two years now, but they still won't let me pull the trigger on it. Mainly because our line workers still place wrong reels or mislabel
