YESTECH’s New Large Area LX-1000 AOI System Enhances Inspection Capabilities
March 16, 2020 | Nordson YESTECHEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
YESTECH, part of Nordson ELECTRONICS SOLUTIONS and a leading supplier of automated optical and conformal coat inspection systems for the electronics industry, announced today the introduction of their all new LX-1000 large area Automated Optical Inspection system.
YESTECH’s LX-1000 in-line, large area automated optical inspection system offers high-speed PCB assembly inspection with exceptional defect coverage, inspecting solder joints and verifying correct part assembly, enabling users to improve quality and increase throughput. Its advanced multi-purpose, double-sided inspection system provides exceptional defect coverage, with dual sided top-down and bottom up viewing sensors, enabling users to improve quality and enhance yields.
Advanced 2D and 3D sensors and newly available image processing technology integrates several techniques, including fringe projection, color inspection, normalized correlation and rule-based algorithms, to provide complete inspection metrology with an unmatched low false failure rate. Programming the LX-1000 is fast and intuitive. Operators typically take less than 60 minutes to create a complete inspection program including solder inspection. The LX-1000 utilizes a standard package library to simplify training and ensure program portability across manufacturing lines.
The LX-1000 is highly effective for selective solder, post wave and connector inspections. Off-line programming maximizes machine utilization and real-time SPC monitoring provides a valuable yield enhancement solution.
- Single or dual sided imaging with full travel imaging sensors
- 630mm x 630mm large inspection area
- Optional 3D and/or 2D automated inspection
- Up to 100 mm clearance
- Heavy duty conveyor options for samples to 15kg
- High defect coverage / low false failure rate
- MES / Industry 4.0 compatible
“The LX-1000 AOI is a valuable asset to any organization’s quality control procedure,” said Don Miller, YESTECH Vice President. “The large area, dual-sided inspection offers a tremendous amount of flexibility to our customers, allowing them to inspect a broader range of boards. And as with all our systems, it offers the accuracy and reliability our customers demand.”

Connect the Dots: Designing for the Future of Manufacturing Reality—Surface Finish
05/07/2026 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsWhen designing the complex boards that many electronic devices require to operate, designers should consider manufacturability at every step. This is my last article focused on designing for the always-evolving manufacturing reality. Choosing the right surface finish has always been important. If you are creating intricate designs with a wide variety of components, like for an ultra-high density interconnect (UHDI) board, surface finish is a critical last step.
