Bentec Ltd. Completes European Circuits Limited’s Purchase of MIRTEC 3D AOI Machine
January 8, 2021 | MirtecEstimated reading time: 1 minute
MIRTEC, “the Global Leader in Inspection Technology,” announces that European Circuits Limited purchased an MV-3 OMNI Desktop 3D AOI Machine. The purchase was facilitated through Bentec Ltd.
European Circuits Limited is one of Europe’s leading PCB fabrication and assembly houses. Managing Director Mark Briscoe believes that the purchase will help them best provide customers with the high-quality, reliable inspection technology that their customers need to succeed.
“We are delighted to add European Circuits to our large UK customer base,” commented Bentec Managing Director David Bennett. “Recognising the desire for them to offer the very best inspection technologies for their customers, we were able to fulfil this demand with the industry-leading MV-3 OMNI 3D Benchtop System.”
The MV-3 OMNI Desktop 3D AOI Machine is configured with the same hardware and software as MIRTEC’s in-line OMNI-VISION® 3D Inspection Systems providing 100% compatibility across MIRTEC’s entire 3D AOI product line. These systems feature our exclusive OMNI-VISION® 3D Inspection Technology which combines 15 Mega Pixel CoaXPress Camera Technology with MIRTEC’s revolutionary Digital Tri-Frequency Moiré 3D system in a cost-effective platform. MIRTEC’s 15 Mega Pixel CoaXPress Vision System is a proprietary camera system designed and manufactured by MIRTEC for use with our complete product range of 3D inspection systems. MIRTEC’s Twelve (12) projection Digital Tri-Frequency Moiré Technology provides true 3D inspection to yield precise height measurement data used to detect lifted component and lifted lead defects as well as solder volume post reflow. Fully configured the MIRTEC MV-6 OMNI machines feature four (4) 10 Mega Pixel Side-View Cameras in addition to the 15 Mega Pixel Top-Down Camera.
MIRTEC is a leading global supplier of automated inspection systems to the electronics manufacturing industry. For further information, please visit www.mirtec.com.

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.
