Optical Inspection

Optical inspection methods have existed ever since electrical assemblies were tested. They are used to check the visible quality features of an assembly – or in other words: was an assembly correctly assembled and soldered?

We provide solutions to aid the operator with software tools to make the process of Visual Inspection more repeatable and faster. Especially suitable for prototype inspection, first article inspection or small series.

Automatic Optical Inspection (AOI) is needed for inspection during production. A machine takes over the task of quality assessment by digitally capturing an image of the assembly to be inspected. These images are then evaluated via software algorithms. All this happens at high speed with reliable and reproducible results.
