I have had my system for three weeks now. It is an MV3L. It is running version 4.5.0 build 2.1.2 software and it is very stable. I have not had a single crash. We are not a board manufacturer but rather use our system to inspect both populated an

Although not listed in your post, I recommend YesTech. I have been using them since 2007. We have two M1 systems, and they have been good machines. We evaluated three: YesTech, Mirtec, and Christopher. Of the three, the YesTech system caught more

I don't know this machine but I have seen a similar problem on other machines. Have you cleaned and lubed the guide rods for the x-axis? It's easy to forget that AOI machines do need some maintenance. Is it possible that it hangs, while waiting for t

Hi All, I've been working with this machine for several weeks. I read the manual and I'm using the autoprogramming (ATT) with centroid data. I have a question regarding the teaching of the parts. Let's say I have 10 capacitors on the PCB that are th

Chris, The red/blue filter as you call it (on the MV3L it's called HorzVert Sum I think) has become my go-to light source view for manual visual evaluation of flagged solder defects. Of all the lighting sources available, this one gives me the best

If you set the "Base Window" (ie - body of the component) to by viewed by the vertical light, it will give good contrast, and ours usually detects the missing metallization from one or other end, but only on the top-side, obviously. If the metallizat

We do almost exclusively SMT parts but for solder with a 45 degree fillet angle use vertical light type and a binarise threshold of 128(1/2 dark 1/2 light) and use the 2nd option or dark=dark light=light _|" in vertical light solder fillet is dar

We evaluated OMRON, YesTech and Mirtec. Mirtec and Yestech close at #1 and #2. Omron was a little more distant due to programming time required. We are a high volume high mix OEM builder, so speed of programming was a heavier weighted score than co

We use Mirtec MV-7s for post SMT inspection of solder joints as well. The artistry is in the program debug. We are very pleased with the solder inspections provided by these machines, and technology having advanced bit, most every AOI machine has t
