It looks like there's another one or two threads somewhat similar, but allow me to pose another. We've only about two years experience in SMD production, and we're just starting to really ramp-up. As we stand right now, I'm not recieving informatio

It really depends on the assemblies/components that need to be inspected and the available budget. 3D machines are much more reliable at detecting faults while not generating masses of false calls but of course they cost more than 2D machines. I ha
