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.

Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
12/13/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007This week, Peter Tranitz discusses the upcoming Pan-European Electronics Design Conference, set for Jan. 29-30 in Vienna, Austria. Pete Starkey brings us a review of the most recent EIPC Technical Snapshot webinar, which featured a global PCB maker update by Dr. Hayao Nakahara. Don't miss our interview with Manfred Huschka, who explains how companies can begin their own China Plus One plan. Stan Farnsworth breaks down photonic soldering and discusses its use in soldering materials that are not typically compatible. I also enjoyed Dan Beaulieu’s discussion on the value of consistency, and why just showing up for work is half the battle, especially in an inconsistent, evolving industry like ours.
