Vi TECHNOLOGY to Display 3D SPI and Leading Technology at S.E.E.
April 1, 2016 | Vi TECHNOLOGY’Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Vi TECHNOLOGY, a leading provider of inspection solutions for PCB assembly, will exhibit PI-the new generation of 3D SPI as well as SIGMA Link, a powerful web-based software suite, in the Wretrom booth CO4:30 at the upcoming Scandinavian Electronics Event (S.E.E.) scheduled to take place April 19-21, 2016 in Sweden. Wretrom will represent Vi TECHNOLOGY at the show.
The PI Series allows the easy implementation of Solder Paste Inspection in any PCBA line. These new generation systems are very intuitive to use, allowing non-experienced persons to get expected results. With reduced footprint, all models are fitting in modern assembly lines. PI Series is automatic, accurate and repeatable, meeting your advanced SPI requirements with unprecedented simplicity.
PI can be used by anyone. Operators, not just engineers, can program the machine. PI’s powerful capabilities are just a fingertip away. PI is designed to operate solely with a touch screen icon based interface with no keyboard and no mouse, and anyone can be up and running after just an hour’s training. Calibration is done at a press of button with embedded geometric and radiometric calibration tools to ensure consistent performance over time and machine-to-machine portability.
Also highlighted at the show is SIGMA Link; a continuous yield improvement tool to translate SPI and AOI inspection data into useful process information. Built around a unified SPI and AOI database, a correlation of inspection data and images, SIGMA Link provides in-line monitoring, easy diagnosis of the entire PCB assembly process and full traceability of data and images.

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.
