Anybody here work with Viscom S3088-II QS SPI? I heard this machine offers an ultra high speed of inspection and a state of the art features. We have been working with Orbotech P36+ but all we got is headache. A 2K US$ illumination board always fai

Hi Mike- Just a few things to help me understand: What is the need to goto 100% inspection? Contract calls for it, had a high fall out, or high rel ?? Is the current inspection not meeting your needs? Cal

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

Hello Phil, sorry for the confusion, because of our level of defect control and tracking at each process step, we did not use AOI systems at the time. We had a manual inspection station after reflow, then ICT and Functional/Final test for each produc

As I was explaining in my thread, the things that you have to look for when buying an AOI is the false calls rate (which you described perfectly) vis a vis the money and time you want to spend. We bought our machine after that we evaluated some. As y

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

One important thing to look at, when buying an AOI is the False Calls Rate, along with tact time of machine to inspect the PCB. Obviously, many machines can do the the work....but it's also true that each machine differ from the way it do the work. S

Hi floydl, I completely understand when it comes to data crunching after long hours of performing measurements, it's the last and most important arduous task in obtaining performance data. If a measurement and evaluation process that traditionally to

J Rose at EMPF says: The introduction of no-clean solder fluxes in electronics manufacturing has given rise to greater levels of solder balling simply because the opportunity to remove them in the wash process does not exist. They are typically cause

I have been using ICT for a number of years. It is still a viable resource for catching defects in the production process. AOI doesn't catch everything, such as bridging on QFN or J-lead devices (this will depend on the type of AOI and camera syste
