In this smart world, electronics and inturn PCBs are the heart of automatic systems. These PCBs are assembled using fully automatic SMD mounting machines. Also, at times some of the components are manually mounted / inserted. The overall process can generate defects such as Missing components, Wrong orientation, Wrong component, etc. These PCBs are tested after soldering. If any of these defects are found, it may get detected during follow up testing. However, sometimes it is not possible to repair the PCB, or it is time consuming / duplicate activity reducing the production volume. So, here is the Visual Inspection solution of such PCB assemblies to detect various types of defects.

However, sometimes it is not possible to repair the PCB, or it is time consuming / duplicate activity reducing the production volume. So, here is the Visual Inspection solution of such PCB assemblies to detect various types of defects. ASCOMP INC, MAYAPURI, NEW DELHI-110064 offer this camera based Online Inspection Solution where the vision system can inspect the assembled PCBs to detect various defects in the assembly process. Also, this vision system can detect the wrong polarity / wrong placement of the components on the PCB. After complete inspection of the PCB, all the defects are listed on the screen to manually intervene and correct the defect before proceeding. The components vary in size, shape, colour, profile, etc. Also, the positions change from PCB to PCB. So, the solution provides recipe definition for each PCB. The PCB recipe contains the selection of components along with the position and orientation. Thus, the system is very dynamic and extendable.
