Goepel to Hold Webinar on 2D/3D AXI on November 7
October 18, 2017 | GOEPEL ElectronicEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Goepel electronic will be conducting a free webinar, "A Look at the Technology in Practice – Fully Automated Inspection of Hidden Solder Joints and Voids" on Tuesday, November 7, 2017 at 11 AM EST.
The webinar will focus on comparing selective-area and full surface X-ray inspection. The advantages and disadvantages of these strategies will be presented and a technical and economic comparison will be explained. In addition, attendees will receive information about methods and technologies for the inspection of hidden solder joints of BGAs, QFNs, hidden components and voiding in large solder planes.
Learn more about the flexible use of 2D, 2.5D and 3D X-Ray imaging for maximum depth of inspection and gain an understanding of what scalable 3D image is capable of.
The following questions will also be addressed:
- How can I improve inspection depth and confidence in the quality of my PCBs?
- How can X-Ray technologies provide complete inspection at production speeds while simultaneously documenting detailed inspection results?
- Can X-Ray inspection technologies keep pace with the requirements of state-of-the-art electronics manufacturing?
- How will an X-Ray inspection system be integrated into the world of industry 4.0?
The webinar will conclude with an explanation of the optimum balance between image quality and inspection depth.
Goepel invites quality and production managers for electronic assemblies, technologists and production planners and CEOs and directors of electronic manufacturing companies to attend this FREE event.
To register, visit Goepel electronic's "Automated 2D/3D X-Ray Inspection of single-sided and double-sided PCBs in the Production Line" event page.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
