RPS Vision Correct fully integrated fiducial inspection and auto correction software is for selective soldering systems. Uses stored images to validate known fiducial points and other indicators. Identifies position errors of detected fiducials and uses correction algorithms to adjust the soldering program by the X and Y axes deltas. Features include high-def video camera and white LED ring light; precision position correction ±0.005"; sensitivity control for image recognition and search regions, and integration with CamConductor programming software.

Linechart performance-monitoring, multi-vendor software module is said to raise utilization rates to more than 90%. Provides visibility into all production lines and identifies factory inefficiencies. Provides graphical feedback for several pick-and-place equipment performance indicators. Identifies deficiency when productivity falls below acceptable levels. Displays data down to the feeder and nozzle level. Tracks productivity, efficiency, component waste, components-per-hour, and board counts. Each is graphically displayed as a line, bar, or Pareto chart, and can be refined to group the data by day, week, month, machine, product, head, nozzle, and feeder.
