The Marantz Model 22X fv series is a third-generation AOI system for board assemblies which now offers solder fillet/meniscus inspection, which will become available in an affordable desktop set-up. In all 22X models, image-pattern matching technology for comparing of so-called Golden Board and production boards is provided, and a moving digital camera with a lighting system captures the images. Additionally, in the model 22X fv, an LED system with a different light-spectrum creates the possibility of shedding another light onto the components, visualizing defects in solder spots by reflection differences. Advanced image processing algorithms and a high-resolution lens judge which solder joints are to be approved or rejected. The latest operating software version makes this series more powerful and easier to use. Another important feature is LAN networking using multiple machines, controlled by a Windows-based server, for the remote decision to accept or reject boards. This feature reduces the need for on-the-spot staff in the factory.
