Mirtec’s MV-6 OMNI 3D in-line AOI system is a compact automatic optical inspection (AOI) machine offered at a price point that is attractive to companies with a smaller budget.
Powered by the company’s OMNI-VISION 3D inspection technology, the system combines a 15 megapixel ISIS vision system with digital multi-frequency quad moiré technology to provide precision inspection of SMT devices on finished PCB assemblies. Fully configured, the MV-6 features four 10 megapixel side-view cameras in addition to the 15 megapixel top-down camera, for enhanced detection of lifted leads and lifted components.
The machine is equipped with 6-phase colour lighting for detailed detection of lifted leads and check of solder paste deposits. Optionally, it can be supplied with Mirtec’s exclusive Intelli-Scan laser system, providing superior lifted lead detection for gull wing devices and four-point height measurement capability for co-planarity testing of BGA and CSP devices.
A comprehensive package type software library provides simple drag-and-drop component programming, while the Automatic Teaching Tool (ATT) provides automatic teaching of component locations using CAD centroid data. Typical programming time is under one hour per assembly.
