ViTrox, which aims to be the world’s most trusted technology company, is thrilled to announce that we will be partnering with our trusted Sales Channel Partner (SCP) in Mexico, SMTo Engineering SA de CV, to bring to you our Mexico Technology Day 2023. The event will occur on 6th October 2023, from 9.30 AM to 7.30 PM, at APODACA 1 ballroom, Crowne Plaza Aeropuerto Hotel, Monterrey, Mexico.
Our Mexico Technology Day 2023 is the premier event for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and electronics manufacturing service (EMS) providers who are looking to stay ahead of the curve in today's fast-paced business landscape. This event will serve as a platform for us to engage with interested individuals who would like to learn more about ViTrox’s latest SMT PCBA inspection solutions., ranging from V310i Advanced 3D Solder Paste Inspection (SPI) Solution, V510i Advanced 3D Optical Inspection (AOI) Solution, V810i Advanced 3D X-Ray Inspection (AXI) Solution, V9i Advanced Robotic Vision (ARV) Solution, and of course, our Industry 4.0 Manufacturing Intelligence Solutions - V-ONE. We will have designated stations that will feature each solution. We also aim to share with you all how you can achieve production efficiency and excellence with our latest artificial intelligence (A.I.) technologies.
To kickstart the event, we will be hosting an open-day session, from 9.30 AM to 2.30 PM, where you can receive a FREE AOI test report using your own sample boards! From this open-day session, you can experience the efficiency and effectiveness of our V510i Advanced 3D Optical Inspection (AOI) Solution’s A.I. technologies, which are our A.I. Smart Programming and also under how AI can assist operators on the defect review through A.I. Assisted Defect Review (A.I. VVTS). However, slots for this event are limited, so do reserve your slots today by reaching out to our team: ViTrox Mexico Business Development Director, Mr Carlos Ponce, or SMTo’s ViTrox Account Manager, Mr Juan Carlos Santoyo.
We will also be conducting informative sharing sessions on how ViTrox’s A.I. technologies and Smart Industry 4.0 solutions assist your production for better efficiency and also support engineers and operators for a better work-life with all the interesting features from our platform, as well as our value proposition that is guaranteed to give you an advantage in the OEM and EMS industry! Among the benefits you will reap from our solutions are:
- V310i 3D SPI: Machine-to-machine (M2M) communication with printers, and high-speed inspection programming setup with Ultra Smart A.I. Programming
- V510i 3D AOI: A wide coverage of up to 90% SMT component coverage with A.I. Smart Programming, and up to 60% labour reduction with A.I. VVTS.
- V810i 3D AXI: Effortless programming and process optimisation with AXI A.I. Solutions (A.I. Programming, A.I. Classification and A.I. VVTS) for challenging joint inspections (IGBT, HiP, etc.)
- V9i ARV: Reliable, consistent and traceable inspection with 2-in-1 inspection capabilities (covering conformal coating and final assembly inspections).
- V-ONE: Monitor production status and experience real-time data traceability, process optimisation and quality assurance.

I even experimented with developing photos in the bathroom, though I usually dropped the film off at a Kodak center and received the prints two weeks later, only to discover that some images were out of focus or poorly framed. Today, every smartphone contains a high-quality camera capable of producing stunning images instantly.

Fresh PCB Concepts: Assembly Challenges with Micro Components and Standard Solder Mask Practices
06/26/2025 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsMicro components have redefined what is possible in PCB design. With package sizes like 01005 and 0201 becoming more common in high-density layouts, designers are now expected to pack more performance into smaller spaces than ever before. While these advancements support miniaturization and functionality, they introduce new assembly challenges, particularly with traditional solder mask and legend application processes.
Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.
