Inspection Technologies from Viscom at NEPCON Vietnam
August 31, 2023 | Viscom AGEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
A well-prepared team from Viscom Asia is ready to welcome visitors to NEPCON Vietnam 2023 in Hanoi. Two machines will represent the wide range of inspection systems developed and manufactured at Viscom AG in Germany: iX7059 PCB Inspection XL (3D AXI) and S3088 ultra chrome (3D AOI). In combination, they cover 100% of today's post-reflow inspection requirements.
Whether research and development or production of high-end electronic devices, Vietnam is increasingly becoming a very important key player among Asian countries. This will also be evident at the International Centre of Exhibition (I.C.E.) in the country's capital from September 6 to 8. Viscom will be present at NEPCON Vietnam 2023 with its own booth No. V04. Under the vAI brand, for example, Viscom offers a growing portfolio of smart solutions in the field of artificial intelligence. NEPCON visitors will learn more about the advantages of AI in the verification process or, e.g., inspection program generation.
The exhibited iX7059 PCB Inspection XL inline X-ray system has already won the EM Innovation Award in the "X-ray inspection" category this year. Its special features include a revolutionary, fully dynamic 3D image acquisition concept with a new generation of flat panel detectors and the ability to inspect very long PCBs in lengths of up to 1600 mm (63"). High-quality 3D AXI volume calculations and slice images of the inspection areas enable, for example, the repeatably exact measurement of voids – based on high-performance planar CT.
The S3088 ultra chrome at the Viscom booth is a well-known 3D AOI system used in high-throughput production lines worldwide. For verification, it delivers true-to-life 360° renderings and color images from nine perspectives. Its advanced 3D camera technology is combined with extremely high inspection speed and outstanding inspection quality. All this is delivered as a standardized system configuration. The Viscom team is also available to answer questions about other inspection solutions, e.g., for solder paste, wire bonds, conformal coatings, or batteries.
Testimonial

Connect the Dots: Designing for the Future of Manufacturing Reality—Surface Finish
05/07/2026 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsWhen designing the complex boards that many electronic devices require to operate, designers should consider manufacturability at every step. This is my last article focused on designing for the always-evolving manufacturing reality. Choosing the right surface finish has always been important. If you are creating intricate designs with a wide variety of components, like for an ultra-high density interconnect (UHDI) board, surface finish is a critical last step.
