Datest, the industry’s favorite second set of eyes (and hands, and solder joints), is bringing a dose of reality, and a few solutions, to one of electronics manufacturing’s most persistent headaches: false calls in Automated X-ray Inspection (AXI).
On Tuesday, April 14 at 10:00 AM PT, Datest will host a technical webinar presented by Jesper Lykke, Chief Executive Officer of Viscom, exploring how modern AXI systems are finally getting smarter about what they flag, and what they don’t.
Because let’s face it: when your AXI system cries wolf all day, production slows, operators roll their eyes, and inspection data starts to feel less like truth and more like a suggestion.
This session tackles that problem head-on.
Jesper Lykke will walk through how today’s AXI platforms use intelligent algorithms, precise 3D measurement, and AI-supported image processing to dramatically improve inspection accuracy while reducing unnecessary line interruptions. In other words, fewer false calls, fewer distractions, and a lot more confidence in what your inspection system is telling you.
This isn’t a product demo. It’s a technical deep dive into the mechanics of making AXI programs actually work in real production environments.
Topics will include:
- Building AXI inspection programs that hold up in high-mix manufacturing
- Tuning image analysis parameters to balance sensitivity vs. stability
- Applying AI-assisted verification to reduce operator intervention
- Improving defect detection across complex SMT and THT assemblies
For engineers dealing with dense PCBAs, mixed technologies, or high-reliability applications, the goal is simple: inspection results you can trust without bringing the production line to a crawl.
Why Datest Is Hosting This Conversation
Datest lives in the world where inspection results matter, the place where boards are complex, production timelines are tight, and “maybe it’s a defect” isn’t a helpful answer.
That’s why Datest works closely with technology leaders like Viscom to bring real technical insight to the engineering community. No marketing fluff. No buzzword bingo. Just practical knowledge that helps manufacturers assemble better boards.
