Machine Vision Products (MVP) announced that EControls, provider of instrumentation solutions, has procured two Supra E automated optical inspection (AOI) solutions. The procurement was facilitated by MVP’s sales partner, Torenko & Associates in December 2010.
Supra E AOI System
The AOI systems will function at EControls’ San Antonio plant from February 2011. EControls procured the systems to reduce program maintenance, to gain swifter line speeds, and to obtain enhanced first pass yields. The company’s present AOI software does not feature true linking potentials and its optical character verification is restricted to three-part markings.
The latest Supra E AOI system offers comprehensive inspection capabilities, from two-dimensional paste inspection to post-wave inspection. The system provides real-time feedback of production process details. The crux of the inspection system is metrology, which facilitates measurement-based data reporting capabilities.
The Supra E inspection system offers swift cycle times by utilizing an image processing capability and a unique flying technology. MVP also provides a comprehensive program generation capability in short period of time. These programs are deployed directly into production without losing solder joint inspections.
