Goepel electronic to Showcase Flexible Test and Inspection Solutions at productronica 2017
October 12, 2017 | GOEPEL ElectronicEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
At productronica 2017, Goepel electronic will be presenting its fully automated inspection solutions that are offering high fault detection, flexibility and cost reductions through time savings. Goepel electronic will be in Hall A1, Booth 235.
Being highlighted is the new StingRay X-ray detector, an additional option for the system family X Line·3D. With a highly flexible image acquisition concept consisting of high-speed axes and a flat-panel detector, selective 2D, 2.5D and 3D X-ray inspection of complex PCBs is possible. The new technology ensures even better layer separation and brighter images, especially in 3D images, but keeps the balance between image quality and inspection speed.
In the field of automated optical inspection (AOI), the system software PILOT AOI is being premiered with the new feature, MagicClick, which enables fully automated creation and optimization of AOI test programs, including component library, using a sample PCB. In only about three minutes, a production-ready test program can be generated. In comparison to the conventional approach, MagicClick offers significant cost savings and allows the use of AOI even for the smallest volumes. MagicClick is presented as part of VarioLine·3D, the AOI system for full 3D measurement of solder joints and components using an additional 360° angled-view.
PILOT Connect, the core of inspection solutions being offered in support of Industry 4.0, provides the most flexible MES connections. In combination with PILOT Supervisor, centralized verification of all inspection results from multiple inspection systems and types in the line becomes reality.
SCANFLEX II Cube is the new generation of JTAG/Boundary Scan controllers for board level embedded test. Based on state-of-the-art multi-core processors and FPGAs, the system sets new standards in the support of Embedded JTAG Solutions. The boards own circuitry is used for test and programming of complex boards with greatly reduced physical access requirements. With its multifunctional architecture, SCANFLEX II Cube supports numerous applications.
productronica 2017 will be held in Munich, Germany, from November 14-17, 2017.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Gold Mitigation for Class 2 Electronics
05/07/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileIn electronic assemblies, the integrity of connections between components is paramount for ensuring reliability and performance. Gold embrittlement and dissolution are two critical phenomena that can compromise this integrity. Gold embrittlement occurs when gold diffuses into solder joints or alloys, resulting in mechanical brittleness and an increased susceptibility to cracking. Conversely, gold dissolution involves the melting away of gold into solder or metal matrices, potentially altering the electrical and mechanical properties of the joint.
