High precision optical inspection captures images of components by using multiple high resolution cameras. It is used in various industries to inspect electronic and mechanical components for defects or irregularities. The captured images are analyzed by advanced, customized software to identify any irregularities in components and parts. This way, every micron of your product will be checked for flaws and error.
Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) is often used in various stages of the manufacturing process. It is used for monitoring, quality management and increasing accuracy. By using multiple camera systems, different aspects of the manufacturing process can be optically inspected. It is a valuable addition during and after the high precision manufacturing cycle as it can easily prevent loss of materials.
As AOI is very flexible, it can be used for countless of applications, in 2D and 3D. In addition to monitoring during manufacturing, it is also used for end-of-line inspection. For 2D AOI, multiple cameras are used. For 3D AOI, an extra laser module is added. Depending on your manufacturing cycle, optical inspection automation can be used for either monitoring and measuring.
When processes become even more complex, IMS can implement deep learning software into AOI. The software uses deep learning algorithms to compare images to pre-defined criteria. These criteria are set based on industry and product standards. The slightest deviations will be reported and sorted. Ensuring the output is always perfect.
