Scienscope to Exhibit Automated X-Ray Inspection Systems at SMTAI 2017
August 16, 2017 | Scienscope InternationalEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Scienscope International will demonstrate the AXC-800 X-ray component reel counter and X-SPECTION 6000 X-ray Inspection System at SMTA International 2017, scheduled to take place September 19-20, 2017 at the Donald Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois. Scienscope will be in Booth 229.
The table-top AXC-800 is an Automatic X-ray Inspection Component Counter designed for the inspection of components on traditional reels, from 01005 to odd form devices. However, this machine goes beyond standard inspection of components in 7” 13” and 15” reels, with the ability to inspect components in JEDEC trays (including BGA ball counting), ESD storage bags, storage tubes, or just about any form by using simplified algorithms built into the system for all types of components. If your component does not exist, you can add it using the user friendly GUI.
The X-SPECTION 6000 X-ray Inspection System is Scienscope’s most technologically advanced cabinet style X-ray inspection system. As with all X-SCOPE platforms, it includes every advanced software tool required for a wide variety of applications. With more tilt and a rotating work table, the X-SPECTION 6000 offers the ultimate in flexibility. Standard features of the X-SPECTION 6000 X-ray inspection system include:
- Fully integrated, 130 kV micro-focus high power closed X-ray tube
- 5" x 5" or 4" x 3" high resolution and ultra-resolution CMOS digital flat pane image detectors
- 60° camera tilt for oblique angle viewing
- 22" x 18" inspection stage with 350° rotation
- Color mapping camera with zoom window provides easy location and identification of faults
About Scienscope International
Scienscope was founded in 1994 to meet the growing need for reliable and affordable general-purpose optical and video inspection solutions for the electronics and PCB industries. The company began with basic stereo zoom microscopes used for SMT inspection and rework of circuit boards and electromechanical assemblies with a commitment to quality, value and support. Over the past 20 years, Scienscope has evolved to become a complete inspection solution provider, offering both offline and inline X-Ray systems, Video coordinate measurement systems, Video inspection systems, and microscopes to meet a wide variety of applications and manufacturing quality requirements.
