Viscom Will Present X-ray Inspection of LEDs at SMTA Guadalajara
September 24, 2019 | Viscom Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Viscom Inc. will exhibit at the SMTA Guadalajara Expo & Tech Forum, scheduled to take place October 23-24, 2019 at the Expo Guadalajara. The Viscom team will highlight the S3088 ultra chrome and M.Sc.Eng. Alejandro Mariscal-Magaña will present “X-ray Inspection of LEDs.”
Mariscal-Magaña, a well-recognized expert in the field of electronics design and manufactruring, will discuss why to use X-ray inspection for LEDs and its advantages. The presentation also will address process optimization with X-ray inspection.
The S3088 ultra chrome is based on Viscom’s unique 3D AOI technology, and combines accurate defect detection with high inspection speed. This makes the system the first choice for efficient SMT production.
Some of the market-leading features of the S3088 ultra chrome include inspection speed of up to 65 cm2/s and 65 mega pixels of information in each 50 mm x 50 mm field of view. The resolution is switchable, and with 10 µm per pixel even 03015 components can be reliably inspected. Together with the eight angled-view cameras, a virtually shadow-free 3D inspection is one of the key advantages of the system.
