MIRTEC, ‘The Global Leader in Inspection Technology,’ is pleased to announce its participation in the 2021 IPC APEX Virtual EXPO, scheduled to take place March 9-11, 2021 online at www.ipcapexexpo.org.
“We are looking forward to participating in the IPC APEX Virtual EXPO,” stated Brian D’Amico, President of MIRTEC’s North American Sales and Service Division. “MIRTEC will feature video feed and information about our award-winning inspection solutions specifically designed to address the full spectrum of inspection requirements associated with the Electronics Manufacturing Industry.”
MIRTEC’s MV-6 OMNI 3D AOI Machine is configured with 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. There is little doubt that this new technology has set the standard by which all other inspection equipment is measured.
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.

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. Without question, the MV-3 OMNI is the most Technologically Advanced Desktop 3D AOI machine in the world!
Smart Inspection Software using AI based on Deep Learning Methodology
MIRTEC’s Automatic Programming Software uses Artificial intelligence based Deep Learning Methodology to minimize human error and standardize the programming process. This advanced software solution automatically analyzes the PCB architecture and assigns the appropriate part type and process parameters for each SMT device thereby maximizing programming efficiency. Only basic operator training is required to achieve optimal inspection results.
MIRTEC’s ‘Best-in-Class’ Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Technology reduces false calls and improves production process efficiency by automatically restoring and inspecting damaged characters through AI and Deep Learning.
The Award-Winning MS-11e 3D SPI Machine is configured with an exclusive 15 Mega Pixel CoaXPress Camera System, providing enhanced image quality, superior accuracy, and incredibly fast inspection rates.
The machine uses Dual Projection Shadow Free Moiré Phase Shift Imaging, excessive Technology to inspect solder paste depositions on PCBs post screen print for insufficient solder, shape deformity, shift of deposition and bridging.
MIRTEC is Leading the Way to Industry 4.0
MIRTEC’s Total Remote Management System (TRMS) is a fully integrated Industry 4.0 Solution which combines remote management with real-time data monitoring and analysis for each system within the SMT production line. MIRTEC’s TRMS provides real-time remote monitoring of status information and statistical data such as equipment operation status, production yield, PC resources, temperature, humidity, etc.
The combination of MIRTEC’s 3D Inspection Systems and TRMS provide a vast improvement in production process management. The TRMS Module is a key part of MIRTEC’s Intelligent Factory Automation System, INTELLISYS®. This powerful software suite was designed and developed by MIRTEC to provide manufacturers with a clear view into the manufacturing process, thereby helping them achieve higher operating efficiencies and improved quality.

Book Excerpt: The Printed Circuit Assembler’s Guide to... Low-Temperature Soldering, Vol. 2, Chapter 5
12/23/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamChapter 5 introduces the advantages of using low-temperature soldering for through-hole components, including cost efficiency, reliability improvement, and reduced warpage. Also covered: the evaluation of different fluxes and the performance of HRL3 in wave soldering and selective soldering processes.
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.
