Scienscope International, a leading American supplier of cabinet-style micro-focus X-ray systems, is pleased to announce that it will showcase the Xspection 3000 X-ray inspection system at the upcoming SMTconnect event in Nuremberg, Germany, from May 9-11, 2023.
The new Xspection 3000 X-ray machine is a versatile high-resolution system designed for circuit board defect detection and quality insurance for the SMT industry worldwide. It offers batch inspection capabilities and provides valuable statistics for SMT line process improvements. Available in two main variants, the conventional 100kV version, and the top-of-the-line 130kV version, the Xspection 3000 is the ideal solution for businesses looking to enhance their quality control processes.
Alongside the Xspection 3000, Scienscope European sales manager, Adrian Radu, will showcase the Smart Storage Rack, Incoming Material System (IMS-100), and AXC-800 III Component Counter in Hall 4, Stand 245.
The Scienscope Smart Storage Rack is an innovative system that offers an unparalleled level of accuracy, providing each electronic component with a unique ID number for precise inventory management while facilitating quick and easy retrieval of stored components with its advanced location tracking feature. The Scienscope Smart Storage Rack accurately detects when reels are placed or removed, with multi-color LEDs allowing for simultaneous multi-kitting. Customization options are available to ensure seamless integration with your company's specific requirements, while MES integration is effortless through a Scienscope counter or a Label scanner computer. With its advanced capabilities, the Scienscope Smart Storage Rack is the ultimate solution for companies seeking the highest level of precision and efficiency in their electronic component storage and inventory management.
The Scienscope Reel Smart Lite is a state-of-the-art, high-resolution barcode camera system that employs an advanced image-based algorithm capable of accurately reading any barcode, including those with defects. This cutting-edge system is designed to automate the incoming process, streamlining operations, and reducing the likelihood of human error during the relabeling process. The Reel Smart Lite also features a top scanner option for added convenience and flexibility, allowing for a comprehensive collection of all incoming material. With its advanced capabilities and user-friendly design, the Scienscope Reel Smart Lite is the ideal solution for companies seeking to optimize their incoming material management processes.
The award-winning AXC-800 III Component Counter is the third generation of Scienscope's revolutionary X-ray component counter. Using state-of-the-art X-ray technology and intelligent AI algorithms, the AXC-800 III captures images of components inside reels and uses AI to count quantities. It can count down to 01005 with 99.9% accuracy in less than two seconds per reel. The patented Scienscope optical barcode scanner deciphers barcodes simultaneously, with real-time results uploadable to the MES system.
