In November 2012, GOEPEL Electronics launched the OptiCon THT-Line AOI system, which provides a parallel inspection of THT components and THT solder joints.
Features and USP: In a typical THT production line, it is now possible to inspect mounted components before the soldering process, as well as PCB solder joints during the return transport.
This improved effectiveness is enabled by the OptiCon THT-Line system’s integration opportunity before the wave soldering oven. A camera system with an extremely high focal range (up to 80 mm) inspects the PCB’s component side. Hence, detected faults, such as wrong polarity, can be easily rectified before the soldering process. For solder joint inspection, a scanner system is integrated into the AOI system’s lower transport area. It checks the PCBs during the return transport. Additional configuration variants for the inspection of the component and solder joint sides are also possible.
