Good Morning Roger, The Mirtec's can be adjusted to lower your false call rate. This can be done by reducing the matching percentage for each componnent but the result of this action is that the machine becomes less selective. If you lower them too

We are also looking for AOI machines, pre- and post-reflow. We already tried one machine from the UK (I don't remember the name, I perfer to forget we ever had it) and they told is it would do everything we wanted. Maybe so, but not well enough. It s

Thanks for the reply Mike, I will look forward to see the end result of your investigation (e-mail people_1@fsmail.net). Regarding the test machines, I was trying to ask what are the suited/or recommended from your experience, set of test equipment

I am trying to optimise the use of our Automatic Optical Inspection Machines. As the data we collect from the machine is mainly of the attribute type (Pass/fail, Defect1, Defect2, etc), what advice can you provide to improve its use as well as using

When testing components on a PCBA, try to validate coverage for presence, correct, orientation, live, and alignment. AOI is not really great at catching cold solder joints and damaged components, and from my experience an X-Ray is only as good as the

You should also check out YesTech. Both companies should give you in house demo's and be willing to leave a machine there to try out for 30 days. They are with out a doubt only as good as the programmer. I think the support from Yestech would be bett

I was thinking the same thing. Try turning off your anchors and look at the size of your search and % match you have set. if you are concerned about not catching missing components, try training a negative template.

Thanks for all the responses. I do agree with what was said, and can certainly see reasons not to try. I'll write a little more about what we do. We are a defense contractor, and as I mentioned very high mix, low volume. We only have 1 SMT line.

I am currently finding it challenging(help!) to determine how I can introduce SPC ontrol within the AOI process and how the AOI can help control other SMT processes. Can someone please provide me with some ideas or any of excels fancy charts/macro

Not sure how many inspections need to be done at 15 - 20sec total per board, but you may need to install multiple SPIs/AOIs to hit your takt time. Mike
