Specifications
The Q1 AOI system combines compact industrial hardware with AI-powered inspection technology. Designed for fast PCB quality control, it integrates high-resolution imaging, advanced lighting, and intelligent defect detection.
- Machine dimensions: 47 x 56 x 37 cm (18.50 x 22.05 x 14.56 in)
- Weight: 10 kg (22.04 lb)
- Max capture area: 20 x 13 cm (7.87 x 5.12 in) per image. Larger PCBs are inspected by capturing multiple images to ensure full coverage.
- Inspection time: 5-7 seconds
- Camera: Industrial camera
- Lighting: LED illumination
- AI-powered defect detection: automatically detect soldering defects, missing components, polarity errors and other PCB manufacturing issues in seconds.
- Inspection area control: focus the inspection only on the relevant PCB regions to reduce false positives and speed up the inspection process.
- Adaptive inspection sensitivity: fine-tune detection sensitivity to match different PCB designs and production requirements.
- Automatic inspection reports: generate detailed PDF reports with inspection results for documentation and quality control.
- PCB traceability with barcode, Datamatrix and QR reading: automatically identify and track every PCB during inspection for full production traceability.
- Component measurement tools: measure component dimensions and placement directly inside the inspection interface.
- PCB variant support: define multiple valid component variants so the system no longer flags them as inspection errors.
Explore all AOI inspection capabilities on the Features page.
- UV inspection module: optional UV lighting enables the detection of defects in conformal coating applications, ensuring correct coating coverage and improved PCB reliability.
- Automatic conveyor system: an optional conveyor automatically transports PCBs into the inspection area, enabling seamless integration with SMT production lines and automated workflows.
