There are several low cost vision systems ( under $ 5,000) on the market: http://www.dvtsensors.com" ,Keyence, Texas Instruments, Imagenation. If they can capture the image in one shot ( comparing with one good board ) depends on the camera resolutio

Hi Larry- Be wary of which IR systems you use, dark IR (ERSA) maintains only the positive effects of infrared use in that this infrared medium wavelength has the optimal absorbtion/reflection ratio between light and dark colors. Therby, guaranteeing

Does anyone have experience with different colors of solder mask. I am interested to know if a clear or light color mask is better in the reflow process. Most of the boards we do have a green solder mask. It seems to me that I read somewhere that

I need to address the issue for colorful display on solder joints, for whoever researched on this machine, no one can deny it is a smart feature for visual assistance. however, it is still Mono color "gray scale" algorithm. it basically "paint" the i

Poor reading skills......that being said, with good resolution (3 megapixel and up) digital cameras so readily available, and cheap, why not use real pictures? After all, a picture's worth a thousand words... In the '90s, I used to translate CAD/Ge

In that case the same tools can apply, just different implementation. We might use any a number of visual aids for an assembly, one for each component type (resisors, capacitors, ICs, etc.). In the case you're describing we might color code the lo

People use green soldermask because people use green soldermask. In the 1950s, the US military selected green, because they liked green better than other colors. So, here we are. We believe the performance of red and blue is comparable with green. T

Sorry, if my first comment was a bit offensive against PCB manufacturers (it was not really intended :( ). We have already discussed the above mentioned issues with the manufacturer, and they stated, that everything is within specification... (and y

It could be the flux condensed in the oven. We plan to clean the vent and filter next week. Then we see if help. I just want to see if anybody has same problem in experience. Soldermask supplier told us the same white soldermask always change to a l

Hi, We have developed solution called EMethodSheet. It allows you to create colored map based on CAD (or SMT machine data) and BOM. You can add different functions in different colors for a components. Also, you can add pictures of extra components.
