Yamaha Ysi-V Optical Inspection Machine

The YSi-V is a hybrid AOI unit that supports high-speed, high-resolution 2D inspection, optional 3D inspection (checking component height and tilt angle), and a 4-direction angled camera (45°, 135°, 225°, 315°) for diagonal/oblique views.

It handles PCBs from 50 × 50 mm (minimum) up to 610 × 560 mm in single-lane configuration. There’s also the option for support of boards up to 750 mm in length.

The YSi-V comes in versions with 12-megapixel or 5-megapixel cameras. Optical resolutions of 12 µm or 7 µm are selectable. These higher resolutions are especially helpful for small-component & fine-pitch work.

It can detect component misplacement, floating components, tilt & height misalignments via 3D, colour / brightness / shape discrepancies, solder defects after hardening, and issues that might be invisible in purely 2D systems. The 4-direction angled camera helps where view from the top isn’t enough.

Power is 3-phase AC, input options 200-240 V or higher (200/208/220/230/240/400/416 V ±10 %), running at 50/60 Hz. It also requires clean, dry air at a source pressure of roughly 0.4-0.45 MPa or higher.

The YSi-V external dimensions are about 1,252 × 1,497 × 1,550 mm (L × W × H). The weight is approximately 1,300 kg.

It includes features like a full-HD LCD touch panel, programming navigation, new character recognition algorithms, and selectable inspection resolution. The 4-direction angular camera reduces tac-loss by inspecting from multiple angles in one pass.

It is especially suited to high-mix / fine-pitch SMT production where both 2D and 3D inspection are needed, and where components have reflective or shiny surfaces or there’s a need to detect floating or tilted components. It also helps manufacturers who want to minimise rework and defect rates via more comprehensive AOI.

As an authorised Yamaha partner, Hawker Richardson supplies the Yamaha YSi-V, a high-speed AOI, across Australia and New Zealand. We provide on-site installation, training, servicing and technical support, with coverage spanning Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Auckland, and Christchurch, and stock commonly used spare parts for fast servicing and minimal downtime.
