Vitrox 510XL inspects defects in PCBAs with a max. board size of 610mm x 610mm .Throughput post-reflow is 5.5 in2/sec and pre-reflow is 6.9 in2/sec. Post-reflow inspection includes missing, offset, skewed, polarity, billboard, tombstone, lifted/bent leads, excess/insufficient solder, bridging, wrong parts, and traceability. Pre-reflow coverage also includes extra part inspection. 2-D paste inspection includes paste registration, bridging, and other defects.
