FSI's X-Mag Machine Vision Station to feature in Hand Soldering Competition
FSInspection has announced that it will provide the X-Mag Machine Vision Station in the Hand Soldering Competition presented by IPC — Association Connecting Electronics Industries in cooperation with productronica 2015. Competitors will demonstrate their soldering skills as they compete for cash prizes and a coveted spot at the IPC Hand Soldering World Championship at IPC APEX EXPO in Las Vegas next March.
The X-Mag Machine Vision Station’s integrates a high-definition camera and monitor with 16.4in (41.6 cm) of workspace under the camera to offer sharp images at all magnification levels. The auto-focus,tilting camera, with manual-focus override and 330° rotating camera arm, provides exceptional inspection of objects of varied sizes.
The X-Mag visual inspection station has adjustable, flexible LED lighting to minimize glare and shadows. Hand soldering of high density printed boards demands highly skilled operators to ensure a zero-defect soldering process, and this competition will recognize the best skills in hand soldering complex printed board assemblies.
Over three days, participants will compete against each other to build a functional electronics assembly within a 60-minute time limit. Assemblies will be judged on soldering in accordance with IPC-A-610F Class 3 criteria, the speed at which the assembly was produced and overall electrical functionality of the assembly. IPC-A-610 Master Instructors from IPC licensed master training centers will serve as the judges. For more information on IPC's Hand Soldering Competition, visit www.ipc.org/hsc-productronica.
