S3088 Conformal Coating Inspection system inspects coatings for cracks, bad spots, layers that are too thin or too thick, smearing, impurities, or splashes. Transparent protective coatings contain UV fluorescent indicators that emit visible light, allowing automatic optical inspection. Based on S3088 system, features four orthogonal 8Mp cameras and UV LEDs. Resolution 11.7 or 23.5µm/pixel. Works with Viscom SI inspection software. Integrates in production control systems. Works with UV LEDs, which contrasts UV-reactive conformal coating with the background material, clearly detecting lacquer contours.
