YRi-V HS for Faster High-Resolution Inspection Adds Advanced Laser Profiling for LED Coplanarity
Yamaha Robotics Europe has launched the YRi-V HS optical inspection (AOI) system, featuring faster performance, high-resolution imaging, and improved accuracy for inspecting surface-mounted LEDs. This advanced system will debut at Electronica 2024 in Munich, Germany.
Optimised for Diverse Electronic Manufacturers
The new YRi-V HS configuration is for electronic manufacturers in all market sectors, from consumer to industrial and automotive, seeking greater inspection resolution with high production throughput. As circuit designers increasingly adopt components with tiny feature sizes, to deliver extra functionality and comply with tough constraints on the overall form factor, manufacturers need inspection systems with greater resolution to ensure proper quality control. On the other hand, maintaining high throughput is critical to fulfil productivity targets.
Combining High Resolution and High Throughput for Complex Components
The YRi-V HS now combines high inspection resolution and high throughput, to handle components such as the latest, smallest SMD chips and IC packages with fine-pitch I/Os and BGAs with a high I/O count. With its enlarged, square field of view (FOV) and 25Mpixel camera, the YRi-V HS can image a complete assembly or selected area up to 1.6 times faster than ordinary high-resolution systems.
Advanced Laser System for Precise Measurement and Coplanarity Checking
The new YRi-V HS integrates an advanced laser system for precise height measurement and coplanarity checking of components, such as LEDs in lighting products, overcoming the limitations cameras face in accurately detecting component height. Laser profiling overcomes the imaging challenges presented by the LEDsā transparent or opaque lenses, offering effective quality control for manufacturers to address LED lighting opportunities in automotive, consumer, and industrial markets. Laser profiling enhances accurate imaging of components with highly reflective surfaces, like wafer-level chip-scale packages, which helps improve end-of-line yield and reduce rework.
