Description

The AOI Machine (WET-QC-01) handles a defined step in the PCB process flow as part of the inspection & quality group. It is normally specified together with the cells immediately upstream and downstream of it, which is where most of the yield and cycle-time gains actually come from.

Line Integration

This inspection & quality system is designed to slot into a conveyorized, automated line or run as a standalone cell. The interfaces to upstream loading and downstream handling are configured so material moves cleanly through the inspection & quality step without bottlenecks.

Design Highlights

  • Stainless-steel wetted parts and chemically resistant construction where the process requires it.
  • Safety interlocks, alarms and guarding designed for a production environment.
  • Designed for low maintenance, fast changeover and high equipment uptime.
  • High-resolution imaging with reference-to-board defect comparison.
  • Defect classification and reporting for SPC and traceability.

Typical Applications

Used for inner-layer and final inspection and electrical test across high-reliability and high-volume production.

Build and Support

The AOI Machine is assembled and tested in-house. Electrical, air, water, and exhaust requirements are detailed in the installation drawing issued before delivery. After commissioning we provide process guidance and spares documentation to keep uptime high.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the AOI Machine do in the production line?
The AOI Machine performs a dedicated step in PCB fabrication. Correct placement relative to the upstream and downstream stages is what protects overall yield, cycle time, and cost per panel, so it is normally specified together with the cells immediately before and after it.
Can the AOI Machine be customised for our process?
Yes. Conveyor width, tooling, control options, and the surrounding handling can be adapted to your panel size, throughput target, and facility constraints. Share your specification and we will propose a configuration.
What is the maximum panel or workpiece size for the AOI Machine?
This configuration is rated for a maximum panel size of 610 x 610 mm. Larger or thinner stock can usually be accommodated with tooling changes — confirm the exact window for your job before ordering.
What are the utility requirements for the AOI Machine?
Electrical supply is specified at 3-phase 380-415 V AC, 50/60 Hz. Compressed air, water, and exhaust connections are detailed in the installation drawing supplied before delivery.
