Inspection Technologies from Viscom at NEPCON Vietnam
August 31, 2023 | Viscom AGEstimated reading time: 1 minute
A well-prepared team from Viscom Asia is ready to welcome visitors to NEPCON Vietnam 2023 in Hanoi. Two machines will represent the wide range of inspection systems developed and manufactured at Viscom AG in Germany: iX7059 PCB Inspection XL (3D AXI) and S3088 ultra chrome (3D AOI). In combination, they cover 100% of today's post-reflow inspection requirements.
Whether research and development or production of high-end electronic devices, Vietnam is increasingly becoming a very important key player among Asian countries. This will also be evident at the International Centre of Exhibition (I.C.E.) in the country's capital from September 6 to 8. Viscom will be present at NEPCON Vietnam 2023 with its own booth No. V04. Under the vAI brand, for example, Viscom offers a growing portfolio of smart solutions in the field of artificial intelligence. NEPCON visitors will learn more about the advantages of AI in the verification process or, e.g., inspection program generation.
The exhibited iX7059 PCB Inspection XL inline X-ray system has already won the EM Innovation Award in the "X-ray inspection" category this year. Its special features include a revolutionary, fully dynamic 3D image acquisition concept with a new generation of flat panel detectors and the ability to inspect very long PCBs in lengths of up to 1600 mm (63"). High-quality 3D AXI volume calculations and slice images of the inspection areas enable, for example, the repeatably exact measurement of voids – based on high-performance planar CT.
The S3088 ultra chrome at the Viscom booth is a well-known 3D AOI system used in high-throughput production lines worldwide. For verification, it delivers true-to-life 360° renderings and color images from nine perspectives. Its advanced 3D camera technology is combined with extremely high inspection speed and outstanding inspection quality. All this is delivered as a standardized system configuration. The Viscom team is also available to answer questions about other inspection solutions, e.g., for solder paste, wire bonds, conformal coatings, or batteries.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
