CyberOptics redefined inspection speed with SE500 — a new, 100 percent 3-D solder paste inspection system. This system has the ability to inspect the most demanding assemblies with a >80 cm2/second inspection speed without compromising measurement accuracy and repeatability.
Building on CyberOptics’ reputation as the provider of solder paste inspection systems with industry-leading volume accuracy, the SE500 can inspect pad sizes down to 01005 component size (150 x 150 µm) while keeping up with ever-increasing line speeds.
The SE500 product suite consists of two models to accommodate varying panel sizes. While the SE500 is capable of transporting panels from 50 x 50 mm (2 x 2 in.) up to 510 x 510 mm (20 x 20 in.), the SE500-X can transport panels from 100 x 100 mm (4 x 4 in.) up to 810 x 610 mm (32 x 24 in.).
Standard features for both models include: automatic conveyor width adjustment, mechanical board stop, 1- and 2-D multiple barcode read using sensor, and Process Tracker™ SPC charts with alarm capability. The SE500 is equipped with a flexible circuit warp compensation algorithm to compensate for warp on complex shapes within a field of view, as well as an XML file format output for easy integration with shop floor control systems.
“The SE500, with its leapfrogging high speed and performance, has been received as the premier 3-D solder paste inspection system in the market across the globe. In an industry where profit margins are ever getting smaller, customers are always trying to speed up their production lines and maximize their production capacity, while reducing new equipment purchases. Speed is king. The SE500 achieves its industry leading speed by a combination of several technological advancements. This fact, coupled with our revamped sales and marketing programs designed to reach out even further into new markets and customers, are signs that the SE500 will quickly become the standard in the industry,” said Dennis Rutherford, VP Global Sales and Marketing.
Established in 2006, the EMAsia Innovation Awards program strives to recognize and celebrate excellence in the Asian electronics industry, inspiring companies to achieve the highest standards and push the industry forward.
