GOEPEL Webinar: 100% Inspection of Hidden Solder Joints with AXI Within Line Cycle Time
October 9, 2019 | GOEPEL ElectronicEstimated reading time: 1 minute
GOEPEL electronic will be conducting a free webinar, “One X-ray, please. 100% inspection of hidden solder joints with AXI within line cycle time” on Tuesday, October 22 at 2:00 p.m. UTC, 4:00 p.m. CEST, 10:00 a.m. EDT, 9 a.m. CDT.
As a rule, densely populated and complex assemblies always have one thing in common: a large number of hidden solder joints under the housings of the components. These must be inspected to ensure quality. Automatic X-Ray systems (AXI) ensure greater confidence and much higher degree of quality.
The webinar addresses which system concepts are available for testing concealed solder joints (manual vs. automatic testing) and how 100% inspection can be achieved within the line cycle time. Scanning 3D X-Ray image acquisition is presented as the kay to enabling short cycle time with excellent defect detection.
Other Key Features:
- Comparison of two established 3D image acquisition methods on the market: stop-and-go and scanning X-ray image acquisition
- Difference between 2D, 2.5D and 3D X-Ray
- Practical examples of BGA, QFN, and LEDs to demonstrate how double-sided panels can be inspected fully automatically using 3D X-Ray
- Address the possibilities of defect detection and its limits
In the second part of the webinar, the topic of software will be examined in more detail - from wizard supported test program creation using an offline programming station, to execution of the test program using machine software in Smart Phone style, to verification station for classifying the defects found.

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.
