Help! I am about too buy an AOI system. However, I cannot make any difference between Cyberoptics/VI Tech/MVP. Can any one help

Another issue to look at is the efforts that it takes to become familiar with the machine. Where I work we are also looking into AOI machines, and one of our requirements (based on how simple the vendors say their machines are) is that after no more

You definitely need to have live demos of each system, using your specific assembly if you want to compare apples to apples. Each of the AOI OEM's you mentioned have plus amd minus to their unique systems. You will need to evaluate your specific nee

In the past year I was responsible for developing and leading a Team focused on AOI, Evaluation, Justification, and with a full ROI required, supporting a HMLV manufacturing environment. If you have in these economic times the additional resources t

From the manufacturer's perspective, we aim to be able to fully inspect all components within the beat rate of the line and generally do. I'm not aware of any competitive machines that do the random sampling that is suggested above, however it is do

My company is also researching AOI systems and X-ray inspection equipment. Almost all of our assemblies are mixed technology, and contain considerable hand load. Is anyone out there using AOI post solderwave?

We like our AOI from Cyber Optics but only use it for process prove out. I would rather have a solder paste inspection system in line. The cost of AOI is killer. A new process is to embed a UV signature between the components pads and when a componen

Ours works good with the inspection of components, but looking at solder joints has a lot to be desired. There is lots of new names in the AOI business. Like any other equipment, do your homework. Ours has had their share of problems, but I think it
