MPI selects Scienscope’s X-Scope 6000 x-ray unit
Scienscope International is pleased to announce that Microboard Processing (MPI) has purchased a Scienscope X-Scope 6000 X-ray system. MPI, a 33-year old, woman-owned EMS provider, installed the unit at its Seymour, CT facility. The X-Scope 6000 is a digital, fully programmable CNC controlled X-ray inspection system that allows operators to programme inspection and measurement routines with point-and-click ease.
It features a high power 130kV 5 micro closed X-ray tube, 70° camera tilt for oblique extreme angle inspection and 1,000 times system magnification. Scienscope also offers various 100% automated inline platforms such as the X-Scope 8000 to meet the needs of many different industries.
“The Scienscope X-Scope 6000 is a great value for a technologically advanced X-ray inspection system,” commented Dane Wentworth, Senior Vice President, MPI. “We recently replaced an older competitive system and find that the X-Scope 6000 gives us an edge in getting challenging solder profiles developed for high mass boards with many hidden solder terminations. The quick process feedback, sharply focused images and easy-to-use software has made this machine a big hit with the engineering team!”
