AOI vs. X-Ray Inspection: Which Defects Does Each Catch?

A BGA sits on a medical control board with 400 balls hidden under the body. The AOI vs X-ray inspection question stops being academic the moment a line operator waves the board past the optical camera and it passes — while a 22% void sits inside ball 137, invisible to any lens. We have watched […]

Automated Optical Inspection: Ensuring PCB Manufacturing Quality

Modern electronic devices demand smaller sizes, faster speeds, and greater functionality. Consequently, printed circuit board complexity has increased dramatically. Dense layouts with fine-pitch packages and thousands of solder joints make manual inspection inefficient and unreliable. Therefore, manufacturers rely on Automated Optical Inspection to guarantee production quality. This technology serves as a critical checkpoint in both fabrication and […]
