Inspection Coverage16 inspection capabilities.
Here’s what they cover.
Each inspection runs on an automatically generated inspection program. Select the applicable checks for each component package type.
Component inspection
01
Component Presence & IdentificationMissing or incorrect components.
02
Placement, Orientation & PolarityX/Y offset, skew or rotation, incorrect polarity, tombstoning, billboarding, and upside-down placement.
03
Component ConditionPackage or body damage, damaged chip terminations, burn marks, and discoloration.
04
Component Height & CoplanarityMeasures component height and detects lifted or tilted component bodies and coplanarity defects using 3D AOI.
Solder joint & lead inspection
05
Solder Joint QualityInsufficient solder, excess solder, and cold solder joints.
06
Open Solder JointsOpen or unsoldered connections, available in both 2D and 3D configurations.
07
Lead ConditionLifted, bent, damaged, missing, or unsoldered component leads.
08
Solder BridgingUnintended solder connections between adjacent pads or leads.
09
Adhesive Contamination on PadsUnwanted SMT adhesive (“red glue”) on solder pads.
Marking & code inspection
10
OCR / OCVReads and verifies alphanumeric component markings, symbols, and laser-marked text.
11
Barcode & Serial Number ReadingReads 1D barcodes, QR codes, and serial numbers for unit-level traceability.
Through-hole inspection
12
Through-Hole Lead & Solder Joint InspectionPre-wave: lead/pin presence and insertion. Post-wave: missing, insufficient, or excess solder.
13
Through-Hole Solder BridgingSolder bridges between adjacent through-hole pads.
Whole-board inspection
14
Solder Balls & ParticlesSolder balls or particles anywhere on the assembly, not only adjacent to a solder joint.
15
Foreign Object Debris (FOD)Debris, wire clippings, dropped components, and other foreign material.
16
Surface ContaminationUnacceptable flux residue, stains, or other surface contamination. Coming soon.
