Chad Industries Inc. announced a 100% under board lead inspection option for its line of automated and semi-automated circuit board assembly systems.

 
The option allows for leads to be inspected during the insertion process and has been adapted to the company’s odd form assembly systems.
 
A camera has been mounted to a programmable X-Y stage below the board and inspects the leads once they have been inserted. The programmable stage allows the camera to move with the robot to each new location on the board as well as to multiple locations on the board for each insertion required for large parts.
 
"Driven by our customer demands to trap defects of Odd Form thru-hole components during the board assembly and not at a distant test station, Chad Industries developed a new vision tool and process to meet these needs," said Scott Klimczak, president of Chad Industries. "With this new design we are inspecting the component leads where it matters, after the part has been inserted."
 
The tool uses Adept Vision sAVI.
