productronica 2017: X-ray detector to feature

With a highly flexible image acquisition concept consisting of high-speed axes and a flat-panel detector, selective 2D, 2.5D and 3D X-ray inspection of complex PCBs is possible.

The technology ensures even better layer separation and brighter images, especially in 3D images, but keeps the balance between image quality and inspection speed.

In the field of Automated Optical Inspection, the system software PILOT AOI is being premiered with the new feature, MagicClick, which enables fully automated creation and optimisation of AOI test programs, including component library, using a sample PCB.

In three minutes a production-ready test program can be generated.

In comparison to the conventional approach, MagicClick offers significant cost savings and allows the use of AOI even for the smallest volumes. MagicClick is presented as part of VarioLine • 3D, the AOI system for full 3D measurement of solder joints and components using an additional 360 ° angled-view.

PILOT Connect, the core of inspection solutions being offered in support of Industry 4.0, provides the most flexible MES connections.

In combination with PILOT Supervisor, centralised verification of all inspection results from multiple inspection systems and types in the line becomes reality.

SCANFLEX II Cube is the new generation of JTAG/Boundary Scan controllers for board level embedded test. Based on state-of-the-art multi-core processors and FPGAs, the system sets new standards in the support of Embedded JTAG Solutions.

The boards own circuitry is used for test and programming of complex boards with greatly reduced physical access requirements. With its multifunctional architecture, SCANFLEX II Cube supports numerous applications.
