Board, Semiconductor & Chip Inspection

Whether PCB, BGA, AOI/AXI, or wire bonding – defects can be detected with an accuracy of better than 1 μm.

More about semiconductor applications

Surface Inspection

The software supports the detection of a wide range of defect types – from holes, scratches, and wrinkles to dents, inclusions, or contamination.
Intelligent texture inspection automatically adjusts all parameters, reducing setup time. Even reflective surfaces can be reliably inspected using deflectometry.

Combine traditional inspection methods with deep learning to detect new defect patterns or complex quality features.

More about Deep Learning

Software-based surface inspection identifies various types of defects on materials.
Detecting holes with photometric stereo.
Deflectometry detects defects on reflective surfaces by analyzing light patterns.
Deflectometry enables high-precision inspection of reflective surfaces.
Print Image Inspection: Comparison of labels with trained templates, resulting in: OK.
HALCON inspects labels by comparing the print image to reference templates.
Print Image Inspection: Comparison of labels with trained templates, resulting in: not OK.
Result after print inspection: not OK

Print Image Inspection

The print results of labels, logos, or forms on paper, plastic, or metal are compared with previously trained templates. MVTec software also supports print image inspection according to ISO/IEC 15415.

Completeness Inspection

Missing or incorrectly positioned components – such as cold solder joints, missing diodes, or rotated parts – are detected within milliseconds.
