Pemtron to Show AOI in New Light at the SMTA Queretaro Expo
June 13, 2023 | Pemtron TechnologyEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Pemtron Technology, an inspection equipment developer and supplier, is pleased to announce plans to exhibit at the SMTA Queretaro Expo and Tech Forum, scheduled to take place Thursday, July 13, 2023 at the EXPO HALL Hotel Misión Juriquilla. Jaime Arreola, Pemtron’s MX General Manager, will be available at the event to meet with customers and discuss the company's cutting-edge Athena 3D Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) System and TROI 8800 CI Series Conformal Coating Inspection System.
“We are excited to participate in the SMTA Queretaro Expo and have the opportunity to connect with our valued customers,” said Arreola. “Our Athena 3D AOI System and TROI 8800 CI Series Conformal Coating Inspection System offer advanced inspection capabilities to enhance quality control in electronics manufacturing. We look forward to discussing these solutions and how they can address specific industry needs.”
The Athena 3D AOI System is equipped with 12-way projection for 3D measurements, minimizing errors caused by shadow effects. It performs 100 percent of 2D and 3D inspection concurrently in all field of view (FOV) areas, resulting in reduced false calls and near-perfect defect detection. The system features a resolution of 10/15 or 18um, a 10MP camera (optional 12MP), and a three-stage conveyor. It is designed to deliver exceptional inspection accuracy and efficiency.
“Pemtron’s Athena 3D AOI System sets new standards in inspection performance,” added Arreola. “Its advanced features, such as the 12-way projection and concurrent 2D and 3D inspection, ensure precise defect detection and minimize false calls. This system is an invaluable tool for improving quality control in electronics manufacturing.”
Pemtron’s TROI 8800 CI Series Conformal Coating Inspection System, with optional inline Coating Thickness Measure, provides reliable inspection of conformal coating. With its user-friendly programming, the machine can effectively detect defects such as cracks, coating voids, and incorrect coating thickness (both too thin and too thick). This system enables manufacturers to achieve consistent and high-quality conformal coating application.

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.
