Automated Optical Inspection Machine
High-precision AOI system designed for automated inspection of tray-loaded components with maximum throughput and consistent quality.
Operators load trays containing components with upward-facing spheres into the feed area (up to 20 trays). The system automatically picks trays, moves them to the inspection zone, and performs full-surface optical checks.
Inspection results include: Pass, Oversized Sphere, Undersized Sphere, Solder Bridges, Missing Balls, Solder Loss, Multiple Balls, Misaligned Balls. Defective parts are automatically separated into dedicated collection bins, while good components are replenished and placed into finished tray stacks.
System Overview
This fully automated AOI machine integrates tray handling, optical inspection, defect sorting, and replenishment into a single workflow. It is suitable for high-mix, high-volume environments where repeatable inspection and precise defect classification are critical.
Supported component sizes range from 0402 to 315-ball LPDDR components. The modular design allows easy adaptation for different tray types and product geometries.
