Libra Industries Completes Advanced SPI Training with Omron
December 16, 2016 | Libra IndustriesEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Libra Industries technologists Glenn Watson, quality manager, and Joel Wolnik, production manager, recently completed SPI training at Omron's Chicago facility. Libra Industries recently installed four Omron CDK VP5200-V solder paste inspection systems in multiple locations, and the training gave some of the company's team members a more in-depth look at the system's capabilities.
The Omron training covered the advanced features of the CDK VP5200-V, including high accuracy and repeatability for the inspection of ultra-fine pads, and simple inspection program creation procedures. The training will enable Libra Industries to maximize the speed and precision of its production line with the inline system’s speed of 8,000mm2/sec.
The system’s repeatability of height inspection is within 1µm at 3σ (height standard jig), and the repeatability of volume inspection is within two percent at 3σ (CKD's sample PCB).
Scott Fillebrown, Libra Industries CTO, commented, "Having representatives from multiple facilities allowed us not only to learn the advance capabilities of the SPI system, but also allowed us to develop best practices for Libra Industries corporate wide."
