PEMTRON Launches New Eagle 8800 3D AOI with Color Imaging

Reading time ( words)

Pemtron Technology announces the launch of the Eagle 8800 3D AOI system with revolutionary new color imaging. Color imaging enhances accuracy and precision of Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) providing a more true-to-life inspection image for the operator and reducing the rate of false calls. Because color imaging brings a life-like dimension to AOI inspection, there’s no need for the operator to use a microscope, and Pemtron’s color imaging system gives the software the ability to identify features on the surface of the PCB, from solder paste prints to lifted leads. Inspection is faster, more selective, and more accurate.

The Eagle 8800 features fast program setup, 100% true 3D AOI, an extremely low false call rate, plus complete SPC capability, and creates a closed loop solution when paired with Pemtron’s TROI Series Solder Paste Inspection (3D SPI) system which also offers color imaging.

With increasing frequency, standardising the standards, such as ISO 9201, imposes certain rules that must be met to ensure “fair play” amongst the supply chain. There will be those familiar with hearing about “false positives/negatives” and “never trust the salesman,” so mitigating these is no easy task. However, there is the chance for each 5-30 Task Group to review industry requirements and set out the work program for the ensuing period. With that in mind, much of what follows is based on comments we learn about from our industry around the world, many of whom are not yet IPC members. Yes, this is a membership recruitment drive, unashamedly, as well as a search for volunteers willing to help create the standards of tomorrow.

Webinars are in vogue! But in Pete Starkey's experience, the master of the technical webinar with many years’ experience of delivering first-rate events is Bob Willis—electronics assembly specialist, soldering expert, and provider of training and consultancy in electronics manufacture. Here, Pete recaps Bob’s presentation on the upcoming robotic soldering experience.

The impact of 90% solder dross recovery can have a substantial impact on reducing waste and increasing cost savings. Nolan Johnson recently spoke with Jay Hardin, MS2® product manager at P. Kay Metal, about the process and benefits of efficient solder dross recovery, as well as product roadmaps, the soldering machine market, and raw materials supply chain for solder alloy manufacturing. As Jay says, “For many companies, the savings are in the thousands or millions” of dollars.
