VT-S700 high-speed inline AOI is said to improve inspection accuracy and increase throughput by shortening tact time with an expanded field of view. A telecentric lens with a 2-MP camera reduces image distortion. Inspects at up to 10 µm resolution for components as small as 01005.

VT-RNS inline AOI system has a color highlight system that provides solder joint illumination by providing 3-D information from a 2-D image; uses RGB LEDs in a dome configuration. 3-CCD camera enhances solder shape recognition accuracy by obtaining three times the information of a conventional 1-CCD camera, delivering inspection results down to 10 µm resolution. EzTS Easy Teaching software for VT-RNS enables operators to create and fine-tune inspection programs. A setup wizard format for component color, fillet color, etc. automatically generates inspection criteria.

VP6000 high-speed 3-D SPI system inspects solder paste deposition at inline speeds. Uses structured light to perform 3-D inspections. Automatically adjusts Z-Axis for board warpage. Reportedly programs in less than 15 minutes with the importing of a single Gerber file and a CAD placement file. Includes a full complement of SPC charts and graphs in the standard offline programming station.
