Hello to everyone! I am making another discussion about AOI. I hope I posted in the right sub-forum.I read all the other threads and I have some questions. My company wants to byu a new post reflow AOI machine and they have selected these brands - Omron (omron vt-winII), orpro (symbian S36), viscom (S6056) and I wanted to add Mirtec based on many suggestions in the forum. Basicaly we need the best coverage, lowest false alarm rate in the highest speed, because we have a fast placer. I started making a document for technical data comparison which I can send to enyone. It is possible that we can not have all the machines for demo testing, so that's why I need some advices from you. We already saw and tested an omron vt-winII for lifted leads on IC's and the results were not that good, because it didn't have the angled view option and I personaly don't like despide the amazing optics. So basicaly what is a problem is the lifted leads and missing solder (insificient solder) on the very small IC's with many leads, which our old AOI now can not fuly check. Also gull wings are not being checked and I think this must be checked in our future AOI. I am sorry for the big post, I hope I told you everything.
