“Inspectis new HD-370 and HD-380 compact X-Y stands provide large area inspection capabilities in confined environments,” said Alistair Gooch, Marketing Manager at the company. “Being able to place a digital microscope camera where it is most effective is a key advantage of Inspectis’ product capability, exemplified by the range of stand and mounting solutions available. Our HD-170 and HD-180 X-Y stands have been widely used by manufacturers to solve optical inspection needs in often difficult locations such as over a production conveyor, or after AOI inspection.
“The new HD-370 and HD-380 design is a more compact X-Y stand that has evolved recently, driven by customer demand for a more compact solution for inspecting very large boards. Normally the X-Y stands have a Y- boom. That requires a space behind the setup as deep as the boom length when it is pushed right back. In a tightly packed space, in a compact production line, this might not be possible.”
The new stands offer similar features as their conventional HD-170 and HD-180 boom counterparts, but the camera is mounted on a traveling beam instead of a travelling boom. Therefore, all movement is contained within the space defined by the X-Y dimensions. Stands may be configured for mounting on a bench top (HD-380) or fitted into a rack (HD-370). Either provides the same high stability and easy movement of the camera over the entire working area. All Inspectis cameras feature crucial on-board controls ideal for X-Y mounting so that single-handed operation of positioning and zooming is possible.
The company offers custom designs based on the customer’s needs and can even discuss motorized options. Accessories are available to provide 4-way tilt and Z- axis adjustment
