Nordson DAGE, a division of Nordson Corporation (NASDAQ: NDSN), is delighted to announce that it has been awarded a 2012 Global Technology Award in the category of Best Asian Product for its XD7500VR Jade FP X-ray Inspection System. The award was presented to the company on Tuesday, October 16, 2012 at a ceremony that took place at the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel in Orlando, FL during the 2012 SMTA International Conference.
The Nordson DAGE XD7500VR Jade FP X-ray inspection system uses the latest technology flat panel detector to provide the market-leading, cost effective approach where high quality real-time imaging is needed for production tasks. This outstanding system utilizes its superior Flat Panel detector to quickly capture images with low noise at high gray scale depth resulting in crisper, faster imaging so providing the production operator with optimum throughput for decisions on acceptable product quality.
The open, transmissive X-ray tube together with the long lifetime radiation resistant 1.3 Mpixel CMOS flat panel detector makes this jewel of a system provide the most cost effective choice in terms of price and performance for the high magnification and high resolution real-time imaging necessary for inspecting electronics. The vertical system configuration, with the X-ray tube sitting below the isocentric ‘move and tilt’ of the detector, all controlled through the simple, joystick-free, ‘point and click’ operation of the Nordson DAGE Image Wizard Software provides the safe and collision-free inspection required for production applications. All these tasks can be simply and quickly automated without the need for programming skills.
Premiering in 2005, the Global Technology Awards program is an annual celebration of product excellence in electronics surface mount assembly. Premier products based on the finest examples of creative advancement in technology are chosen by a distinguished panel of industry experts.
