Saki Demonstrates 3D AOI Systems at NEPCON South China
August 25, 2016 | Saki CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Saki Corporation will demonstrate its 2D and 3D automated optical inspection (AOI) systems at NEPCON South China in booth 1G35. Saki's AOI systems' unique Phase Measurement Profilometry technology and quad-directional side cameras inspect and measure QFNs, J-leads, and connectors, and enable the detection of the most difficult defects, such as lifted leads, tombstones, reverses, and height variations, without a reduction in speed. NEPCON South China is being held August 30-September 1, 2016 at the Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center, Shenzhen, China.
On display will be Saki's BF-3Di-L1, for L size boards, and BF-3Di-D1, with dual lanes. The systems measure heights from 0 to 20mm and from all four directions without a dead angle. They enable full automation with very low false calls and zero escapes. Failures of microchips with small pads and parts that have bottom electrodes are detected and the software directly reads sample and component height data to analyze assembly conditions.
Also on display will be Saki's BF-TristarII high-speed selective solder inspection and simultaneous two-sided inspection system. Two separate production processes can now be done in one simple process. It can inspect top-side SMT and bottom-side reflow or through-hole components on both sides in one pass, including inspection for stray parts. This compact machine can even be easily installed into a cell production line.

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.
