Cybord, an AI-based software provider focused on component inspection, reports increased acceptance of its technology among EMS companies and OEMs seeking to prevent non-conforming material from entering PCB manufacturing. According to CEO Oshri Cohen, the scope of concern has broadened beyond counterfeit components to include parts damaged through improper transportation or storage, as well as components that fail approved vendor list (AVL) or country-of-origin restrictions.
The company is previewing a new product, the Real-Time Interceptor (RTI), which is positioned to automate incoming inspection at the point of placement. Cybord's software works by analysing visual data captured during the pick-and-place process, enabling traceability and rejection of suspect components without dedicated offline inspection steps. The RTI solution is expected to be available later in 2024.
Cybord's technology is currently integrated with equipment from partners including Fuji. The increasing regulatory pressure around supply-chain transparency and origin compliance is driving demand for automated inspection tools of this kind across the European and North American electronics manufacturing sectors.
