Superior POP™ Detection Technology

Unlike other paste inspection solutions that have to compromise on either speed or resolution, Symbion P36 Plus’ patented POP technology employs a revolutionary approach to inspection that achieves the very highest resolution at or above line speed. POP utilizes an optimized scanning technique with two scan lines operating simultaneously via independent optical channels for 3-D and 2-D image acquisition. This enables 100% full board coverage and precise measurements of solder paste deposit volume, area, shape, and location. Orbotech’s unique 3-D laser triangulation method provides a clear, angled view for solder paste height mapping at the fine resolution of 5 μm. A true 2-D laser illumination channel ensures excellent top views of the solder paste at 20 x 20 μm resolution. The result is an exceptionally quick and complete picture of each solder paste deposit with virtually no false calls. Powerful image processing algorithms and techniques ensure highly accurate measurement, detection and classification.

For extra detection coverage on critical or challenging components or deposits, the system can be programmed to conduct intelligent BOM-linked solder paste analysis based on component and package-specific attributes with userdefined thresholds and inspection tolerances. To compensate for board warpage that can often be much greater than the solder paste deposit height, specially designed algorithms, optical techniques and hardware automatically adjust for an entire range of warpages (+3, - 6mm) during board scanning.

Symbion P36 Plus is a real measurement system with Gage R&R of less than 10% for typical process tolerances.

Ultra Fast Inspection Speed

The system is enhanced with streamlined architecture and powerful detection techniques for high throughput. It requires very little user interaction and has no need for constant attention, giving you maximum productivity. POP’s optimized image acquisition and “on-the-fly” image processing quickly inspect the entire board. Wizard & Go makes programming and setup fast and efficient. With a scan speed of up to 60 cm²/sec., Symbion P36 Plus keeps pace with your line speed today and is ready for when your throughput requirements increase.

Easy Wizard & Go™ Operation

Symbion P36 Plus features Orbotech’s innovative Wizard & Go operation for the ultimate in simplicity. With the ‘point-and-click’ workflow wizard, using the system is easy and training time is quick. The wizard guides you through each stage of program creation, giving you consistent performance. You can be ready for board inspection in less than ½ hour. Just Wizard & Go! Adjusting your program, verifying new settings and tracking your progress is effortless using Symbion’s easy-to-follow graphic interface and tools. With full off-line programming capabilities, there is no need to use valuable machine time.

Closed Loop Feedback with ADVISOR Central™

Symbion P36 Plus features many integrated capabilities for closed-loop feedback that can be incorporated into your SMT line process control strategy. The system delivers highly accurate solder paste measurement data to the ADVISOR Central™ database. This is combined with information from other SMT line systems, via a straightforward open-system protocol. Using the comprehensive monitoring and analysis tools available in ADVISOR Central™ and its alarm engine for process excursion notification, you can quickly identify trends that lead to defective boards and eliminate sources of errors.
