CASTLE COMPUTERS

Optical inspection with the new stand-alone camera system allows for inexpensive and flexible testing of several production processes. Inspection with the high definition system camera (18/42 megapixels) is controlled and analyzed by a Microsoft Windows-based computer running the professional modus AOI-software. Characteristics Single system for the inspection of objects within an offline application (One Piece Flow). Combination of various inspection tasks such as SMD-THT-UV, bond inspection as well as laser solder inspection. Typical tests include confirmation of the mechanical assembly, presence, placement and orientation of plugs, stickers, fixings, reading of barcodes and data-matrix codes.

The almost maintenance-free modusAOI MCS18/42-Inline was specially developed for transport conveyor modules in production lines. Existing lines can easily be retrofifitted with this system. The small, cost effective system comes with a 18 or 42 megapixels camera, control unit, modus software and led lighting inclusive controller. Characteristics: Single system for inspection of printed circuit boards from the top side. Combination of diverse application tasks such as SMD placement, pre-reflow, chip control, THT fitting, conformal coating and full screening for lost components. Reads barcodes and data-matrix codes in any position and quantity even on multi-PCBs.

The MCS42-SEL-AL is a cost effective camera-based AOI system. This solution is optimized for economical and flexible inline inspection of the several production processes. The small and inexpensive system comes with a 42 megapixel, high-definition industry camera and a PC equipped with the powerful modusAOI software whose development includes professional experience of two decades. Characteristics: Single system for inspection of objects. Combination of diverse application tasks in the THT area which take place before a wave soldering or selective soldering oven. Typical tests include confirmation of the mechanical assembly, presence, placement and orientation of plugs, stickers, fixings, reading of barcodes and data-matrix codes.

The system comes with four 42 megapixel cameras and a high-performance control unit. LED lighting including LED control is also included in the delivery. The entire picture of the image analysis is orthogonally calibrated. Characteristics: This system can meet the toughest requirements for the inspection of bipolar plates in various production stages. The system has been adapted to the high requirements of the inspection of bipolar plates. The image acquisition time of approx. 2,5 seconds with a resolution of 24 um is outstanding. Inspection with the high-resolution system cameras is carried out using the tried and tested modusAOI software. Test possibilities: Position and minimum thickness of the graphite coating in the central area Checking the surfaces that should not be coated Coating contamination (graphite/screenprint) Testing of a defined target contour in screen print Damage to the metal at the edge (balcony) of the workpiece
