PS588 component programmer now comes with a second-generation 3D coplanarity vision system. After a device is programmed, the 3D vision system measures the leads of each device to ensure they are within specified tolerances before placed in output media. Reportedly drives down risk of product failures caused by manufacturing and handling defects. Measures x, y and z axes of the leads on a device to proof them against set acceptance specifications and criteria.
