What are you paying the most attention to as we enter 2025? Find out what we learned when we asked that question. Join us as we explore five main themes in the new year.
Soldering Technologies
Soldering is the heartbeat of assembly, and new developments are taking place to match the rest of the innovation in electronics. There are tried-and-true technologies for soldering. But new challenges in packaging, materials, and sustainability may be putting this key step in flux.
The Rise of Data
Analytics is a given in this industry, but the threshold is changing. If you think you're too small to invest in analytics, you may need to reconsider. So how do you do analytics better? What are the new tools, and how do you get started?

ViTrox Showcases Groundbreaking Inspection Innovations at NEPCON Asia 2024
October 30, 2024 | ViTroxEstimated reading time: 4 minutes
ViTrox, which aims to be the world’s most trusted technology company, is thrilled to announce its participation in NEPCON Asia 2024. The event will be held at Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center (Bao’an) from November 6th to 8th at Hall 9, Booth #9E20.
NEPCON Asia provides ViTrox with the ideal opportunity to showcase its latest advancements in inspection solutions in Southern China. These innovations include the 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, Industry 4.0 Manufacturing Intelligence Solutions (V-ONE) and VisionXpert Smart Code Reader Solution.
Explore the Groundbreaking Inspection Technologies of ViTrox:
The ViTrox V310i Advanced 3D Solder Paste Inspection (SPI), is designed for beginners and experienced operators. It offers enhanced solder detection capabilities through advanced technologies and comprehensive test coverage, leading to improved defect detection and optimal solder paste inspection results. The Ultra Smart Programming simplifies the parameter setup process and reduces human dependency. It provides faster programming for increased productivity, ensuring consistent and accurate solder paste inspection results. Additionally, the V310i 3D SPI streamlines the process with data-correlation features through V-ONE ONE View and its latest Advanced Closed-loop Machine-to-Machine capabilities across ViTrox’s SMT PCB Vision Inspection Platforms. The V310i 3D SPI is certified with IPC-CFX-2591 Qualified Products Listing (QPL).
Our award-winning V510i Advanced 3D Optical Inspection (AOI) incorporates Advanced Artificial intelligence (A.I.) Smart Technologies, such as A.I. parameter checker, A.I. recipe quality control, and A.I. fine-tuning, to achieve fully autonomous processes and reduce human dependency. Through AOI A.I. Smart Programming, users can achieve optimal program quality for accurate and consistent inspection results. Our A.I. integrated features are trained to comply with IPC standards when assigning algorithms. The A.I. Assisted Defect Review (A.I. VVTS) feature further automates defect verification in repair stations, delivering over 90% judgement coverage. Get in touch with our expert on-site to learn more about our powerful and robust AOI A.I. Solutions. The V510i 3D AOI has also been successfully certified under the IPC-CFX-2591 Qualified Products Listing (QPL). The V510i 3D AOI has been widely recognised for its outstanding performance, receiving multiple esteemed awards such as the 2024 New Product Introduction Award, 2023 Global Technology Award and 2023 Mexico Technology Award.
Our award-winning V810i Advanced 3D X-Ray Inspection (AXI) exceeds the conventional 3D X-Ray inspection, handling the largest and heaviest PCBs (up to 52” x 52” and 25 kg). Its innovative AXI Dual Lane solution enhances throughput by up to 50%, compared to the V810i AXI S2 Series, enabling simultaneous scanning of two boards for faster inspection. Equipped with the latest technologies and advanced inspection capabilities, the V810i 3D AXI provides comprehensive test coverage for joint inspection on PCBs with improved cycle times. With powerful 3D X-ray imaging and reconstruction methods, the V810i 3D AXI delivers high-definition, high-resolution X-ray images for accurate defect detection, especially for inspecting heavily shaded and non-uniformly shaded components. Alongside state-of-the-art test algorithms, the system offers fully autonomous process optimisation through A.I. integration, including A.I. VVTS that automates the defect buy-off process in repair stations, further boosting production yield and inspection accuracy. The A.I. VVTS covers over 90% for auto-judgement, reducing human intervention and enhancing precision across challenging and common pad inspections. Additionally, the V810i 3D AXI solution has earned IPC-CFX-2591 QPL validation, highlighting its commitment to industry-leading quality and performance standards. The V810i 3D AXI has also been acknowledged for its exceptional performance with notable industry awards, including the 2024 New Product Introduction Award and 2024 Mexico Technology Award, further reinforcing its industry-leading capabilities.
The V9i Advanced Robotic Vision Inspection (ARV) redefines flexibility in conformal coating and final assembly inspections. Its award-winning 6-axis COBOT design enables adjustable angle inspection up to 90°, reducing human judgement errors. The V9i ARV uses an Advanced CAD-less Smart Learning Algorithm to detect conformal coating defects and inspect screws, cosmetics, connectors and labels without needing CAD data. Recognised for its innovation, the V9i ARV has received the 2024 New Product Introduction Award, the 2021 Global Technology Award and the 2020 IPC APEX EXPO Innovation Award.
V-ONE, our Industry 4.0 Manufacturing Intelligence Solution, ensures seamless connectivity across the production line with real-time data visualisation. It features customisable drill-down charts and dashboards that enhance production efficiency with real-time insights and A.I. predictions. The AOI Intelligent Control Tower provides accurate data visualisation, real-time analysis across multiple lines and customised impact assessments to fine-tune production. V-ONE also monitors machine hardware and utilisation status for optimal performance. Additionally, the ONE View feature offers data correlation across ViTrox’s SMT PCBA solutions (SPI, AOI, AXI), enabling real-time cross-referencing of inspection results and component images. With V-ONE, users gain full traceability to optimise production and ensure quality. In recognition of its cutting-edge capabilities, V-ONE was honoured with the Leadership in Smart Manufacturing Award, further reinforcing ViTrox’s leadership in Industry 4.0 technologies.
