FEINFOCUS, GOEPEL Partner for AOI/AXI System
FEINFOCUS (Stamford, CT), a manufacturer of x-ray inspection systems and tubes, and GOEPEL electronic (Jena, Germany), a vendor of electronic and optical test and inspection systems, have combined their 30 years of test and inspection experience with a recent technology partnership.
The new cooperation and development project has resulted in the launch of the OptiCon X-Line inspection system, which was unveiled at Productronica 2003. The new system combines automated optical inspection (AOI) and x-ray inspection technology for the automated analysis of hidden solder joints.
The system, based on the OptiCon series from GOEPEL, provides automatic recognition of shorts and solder bridges, as well as missing solder balls on ball grid array (BGA) and microBGA devices. FEINFOCUS contributed to the development of the system with x-ray tube technology that was implemented according to GOEPEL's specifications. The companies will publish joint technical papers and application findings through the use of the combined technologies.
