READ MOREOmron introduced a series of new 3D Automated Inspection products to the professional public this year in Munich at the leading European trade show. The company presented the global release of their latest 3D-AXI system utilising Computed Tomography (CT), claiming to be the world’s fastest CT X-ray inspection system. Conventional AXI methods are no longer sufficient to detect hidden solder defects, for instance HiP and voids under BGA or LGA devices and Barrel Fill in THT Connectors. X-Ray Inspection Systems (AXI) enables these hidden solder points to be tested with minimal time expenditure. However, with the new VT-X750, Omron has once again raised the bar for cycle time and High Capability Solder Joint Inspection.
