CHELMSFORD, MA – VJ Electronix, Inc., the leader in rework technologies and global provider of advanced X-ray inspection and component counting systems, today announced plans to exhibit at the 2025 IPC APEX EXPO, taking place March 18-20, 2025 at the Anaheim Convention Center. At Booth #2513, attendees will experience firsthand the Summit 2200i Rework System, XQuik III Component Counter, and Apogee 130 X-ray Inspection System, each designed to enhance precision, automation, and efficiency in electronics manufacturing.

Summit 2200i: Precision and Automation Unleashed

The Summit 2200i is a state-of-the-art, fully automatic rework system designed for medium to large-sized Surface Mount Device (SMD) assemblies. With the capability to handle boards up to 22” x 30” and components as small as 01005, the Summit 2200i sets a new industry standard in precision and automation. Key features include:

• Automatic alignment for components up to 100mm square, reducing operator intervention.
• Advanced thermal control for optimal soldering and rework precision.
• Enhanced process automation, minimizing manual handling and improving repeatability.

The Summit 2200i is built to address the increasing demand for high-precision, hands-free rework solutions, making it an essential tool for modern electronics assembly processes.

Apogee 130: High-Resolution X-ray Inspection at an Affordable Price

The Apogee 130 delivers superior 2D & 2.5D X-ray imaging for a variety of applications, including PCBs, electrical components, medical devices, counterfeit component screening, and wire harness inspections. Key advantages include:

• High-clarity imaging with advanced defect detection for BGA, QFN, PTH, and solder voids.
• New Vi5 software integration, featuring real-time visualization, auto contrast, and advanced defect enhancement tools.
• User-friendly GUI for intuitive operation, reducing training time and increasing efficiency.

With maintenance-free X-ray components and a long service life, the Apogee 130 provides high-resolution, automated X-ray inspection at a cost-effective price point, making it a valuable addition to production and quality control environments.

XQuik III: The Smart Factory Component Counter

The XQuik III is a fast, accurate, and intelligent X-ray counting system engineered for modern electronics manufacturing. With a cycle time of less than 10 seconds, the XQuik III eliminates the inefficiencies of slow, manual inventory counting—an issue made even more critical amid ongoing component shortages that can lead to line-down situations. Key benefits of the XQuik III include:

• Industry-leading count accuracy of over 99.8% using AI-driven automatic component recognition.
• Fast cycle times: Counts both a large reel and four small reels in under 10 seconds, including automatic barcode scanning.
• Push-to-start operator experience for simple, efficient use.
• Flexible MES interface for seamless communication with any inventory control system.
• Pass-through automation capability for smart factory integration.
