All About the Speed

Vision inspection can bring both accuracy and speed to the electronic test process. So, how do you select an inspection method that meets your needs? A lot depends on the application. In electronic assembly, pick-and-place processes have different needs from AOI, x-ray, or layer-upon-layer bare-board inspection. Analog cameras often are selected for pick-and-place to ensure proper component position. But sometimes it is the machine that is the cause of the problem. Cameras mounted inside production equipment can provide a troubleshooting tool for the equipment itself. How do you select vision inspection equipment?
