I.C.T Rolls Out AI-5146W: Dual-Side AOI for Instant Wave Solder Defect Detection in PCBs
I.C.T unveils the AI-5146W, a dual-side wave solder in-process AOI for real-time PCB defect detection. CNN algorithms and high-res imaging tackle soldering, component, and alignment issues in SMT/DIP lines, enhancing yield and efficiency.
SHENZHEN, China – I.C.T, an SMT equipment solutions provider, has launched the AI-5146W DIP AOI optical inspection machine for wave solder in-process use. It enables immediate post-weld defect spotting, reducing rework and waste in PCB assembly.
Typical wave soldering issues—poor hole fill, solder balls, shorts, missing parts, misalignments—risk functional failures. The AI-5146W counters with 12MP camera (5MP base), 21.5μm resolution, 52.6x44mm FOV at 0.23 seconds/view. Handles PCBs to 520x380mm, dual-side without halting lines.
Placed after wave solder, employs RGBW lights for visibility. Methods: color contrast for dirt/missing; outline for polarity; template for solder nuances; OCR for markings. Real-time marks guide fixes; data to MES for trends.
At a Uruguay smart meter site, AI-5146W joined SMT/DIP lines. Starting yield ~85%; after integration/tweaks, 96% in three months. Solder bridges/lifted pads fell sharply, scrap ~30% less.
Finland automotive electronics built coating line with loader, AI-5146W, unloader. Boosted efficiency, low falses, remote setup eased ops. Staff noted simpler bubble/solder ID, shorter checks.
I.C.T highlights: one-click program, low false rates, granite stability, worldwide support. CE, ISO9001, ISO14001, RoHS compliant, supports IPC A-610.
Fits high-mix needs with reliable PCB handling. Early catches like tombstoning/contamination aid throughput, savings. Reports cut labor, smooth runs.
Engineers use insights for params like preheat/wave height. Procurement sees long-term value in less rework.
I.C.T extends AOI to SMT, DIP, coating with models like AI-4026. Reinforces quality gear and custom aid.
