Highly Precise Inspection of Lead Floating in Mini-mold Components Further Reductions in Inspection Tact Time
Lead floating in mini-mold components can be more precisely inspected by
using a combination of color highlight illumination and newly developed lead
extraction logic.
Inspection tact time is reduced by approximately 25% of reduction compared with
conventional systems due to the higher processing speed of the CPU and an
expanded field size.
Note: The speed depends on the PCB.

The Inspection Principle That Reveals Solder Wettability
Advanced Performance for Unrelenting SMT High-density Component Placement
Accurate solder shape image
High Resolution to 10 µm Supports Inspectionof 0402 (01005 in) Chips
Mobile phones exemplify the drive for increasingly smaller and lighter digital appliances, which is accompanied by a non-stop drive for downsizing of components. The VT-RNS supports high resolution to 10 µm, enabling the adequate obtainment of information required for inspection even of extremely small components, such as 0402 (01005 in) chips, for highly precise inspection and measurement. The inspection principle of the VT-RNS:
Color highlight system
Post-reflow Inspection with a 3-CCD Camera
The most difficult point in PCB inspection is recognition of the
solder shape. The VT-RNS-S post-reflow inspection machine
uses a 3-CCD camera, which obtains three times the data of
a single-CCD camera, to enable highly robust inspections.
Dome Illumination Enables High-performance Inspections, Creating the Same Inspection Conditions at Any Angle.
In particular, design considerations with digital appliances include cases in which the placement angle for a component is not a multiple of 90°. The shape of the illumination used in the color highlight system covers angles in all directions in a 360˚ dome (dome illumination), enabling stable performance of inspection regardless of placement directions or other angle designs.
0°
90°
180°
270°
Example: 23.4°
Color Highlight System Provides High PerformanceEven If the Soldering Reflective Luminosity Changes!
In high-density placement applications, the reflective luminosity
of the solder surface is diminished by the shadows of adjacent
components. With the color highlight system, LEDs emit colored
light and information is extracted through chromaticity so that
inspections are not easily affected by fluctuations in reflective
luminosity (brightness of solder surface).
1 1
Detection Logic That Is Sensitive to Market Trends
With lead-free solder, the self alignment effect, which performs sufficiently with eutectic solder, is weakened, resulting in the need for extremely strict position control during the placement process.
Logic Customization Function
The VT-RNS-S post-reflow inspection machine is equipped with a logic customization function supporting flexible application to future changes in placement trends, such as lead-free soldering or new component types.
Character Inspection
Automatic binarization enables stable inspection even for characters that are distorted, blurred, thin, or thick. A block division system increases the number of image divisions so that it's possible to inspect in greater detail.
Note: Effective for polarity and flip inspection of mini molds.
ECM Search Function
Eutectic solder: Pb-Sn
Lead-free solder: Sn-Ag-Cu
Components returndue to self-alignment.
Higher Accuracy in Component Extraction
Color Enhancing Function
With lead-free solder, there are inconsistencies in the reflective luminosity of the surface of the solder. With the VT-RNS-S post-reflow inspection machine, LEDs emit colored light and information is extracted in the form of chromaticity, so no inconsistencies are caused in the reflective luminosity. Accordingly, stable inspection can be performed even for lead-free solder. Also, the ease of visual recognition afforded by the color enhancing function with the unique OMRON image processing technology enables precise color extraction settings.

Process Control (VT-RNS-P/Z Function) The VT-RNS provides a process control function to capture changes in processing and send warnings.
The process capability index (Cp/Cpk) is calculated based on the inspection standard value that is set when teaching. If the process capability index is below the control limit value, the VT-RNS sends a warning.
The control standard value is calculated based on previously measured PCB values (average and deviation). If a measurement value is outside of the standard, the VT-RNS sends a warning.

Xbar-s Control Chart
Easy-to-grasp Production Status
Note: When starting inspections, the control standard is adjusted based on the same PCB data as the previous inspections. The control standard can be used in error checking for the first product.
Line status can be easily grasped with the AOI production report. Good PCBs, defective PCBs, and actual defect information (defect name and image) are reported. This increases inspection accuracy.
