System combines 3-D measurement with 2-D AOI

Staff

In addition to offering full 2-D AOI (automated optical inspection), the Zenith system from Koh Young Technology leverages 3-D inspection technology to sense and measure the z-axis profilometry of entire printed-circuit board surfaces, including electronic components, solder joints, patterns, holes, and even components with foreign materials on them. Koh Young says that unlike conventional 2-D AOI systems, the Zenith has no problem measuring dark components, lifted leads, or mislocated devices. www.kohyoung.com .

Area-scan camera family adds color models

Staff

Joining Dalsa's Falcon family of area-scan cameras are two color models that can deliver a 4-Mpixel resolution at rates of up to 60 fps. The Falcon 4M30 and 4M60 cameras also incorporate a global shutter, which eliminates such imaging issues as smearing and time-displacement artifacts.

Both the 4M30 and 4M60 provide individual color gain and offset to allow for white balancing of the image. They are programmable through a Camera Link interface and can transmit data at up to 320 MHz over distances of up to 10 m. Other features include vertical windowing,...
