Automatic crimper handles ultrafine wires
The Komax Gamma 255 is a fully automatic crimping machine for top-quality processing of ultrafine wires.
It uses a patented three-colour highlight illumination system with coloured light rings, colour camera and real colour image processing to accurately and consistently analyse the solder joint.
This imaging system with the three-colour light LED can produce 3D information from a 2D picture, ensure that operator can understand how the inspection system is makings its judgement, so ensuring a superior result.
This will reduce the risk of false calls yet will help locate missing or shifted components, polarity, wrong components and the presence or absence of solder.
The VT-RNS-pt is very simple to program, intuitive and easy to learn.
By automating simple repetitive tasks, the system will create parts libraries and generate an inspection program automatically.
It can even correct image positions as it inspects the components.
All this saves valuable operator time, and ensures the speedy introduction of new programs.
"The new VT-RNS-pt has raised the bar in benchtop AOI capability", said Mike Rapson, Director, PCB Products at Contax .
"The colour highlight technology makes it easier than ever to identify faults, and determine the nature of the error".
"Adding intelligence to the system makes it easy to program, so ensuring that it offers an unmatched level of AOI excellence in a desktop system".
