Marantz Electronics has launched the Mek iSpector inline Automatic Optical Inspection (AOI) system.
This entry-level system is specifically designed to cater to customers with low volume, high mix production, who require high-quality AOI solutions without breaking the bank.
The iSpector system utilizes DOAL, main and side LED light sources from three different angles, creating a meniscus profiling light pattern that allows for the inspection of component bodies and solder joints. The system is equipped with Mek Colour Histogram analysis, which provides accurate and reliable inspection results with low false calls.
Offering a rapid and repeatable inspection process at an affordable cost, the iSpector is a lead screw and servo drive AOI system that combines high performance with the lowest cost of ownership.
The iSpector uses software that has been continuously developed by Mek and proven in the market for almost 30 years. It has a clean and simple interface with powerful features, including full programming capabilities for solder inspection, component presence/absence, polarity, and value. The system’s Z-axis allows for the inspection of taller components and hybrid PCBs, and users can import NC Data from their pick and place system or most popular CAD/CAM software.
