The first greatest benefit of these machines is that they are quite fast. They can do an hour of work in a few minutes. And then the operator can take a few more minutes to validate the errors. So, inspection speed is one of the most prominent benefits of these devices. In fact, speed is paramount if you want to stay ahead of the competition in the industry. Your business depends on it. Apart from the fast speed, precision is another great feature of these machines. An experienced operator operates the unit and detects the smallest defects in the products. After all, catching the defects and fixing them is the most important aspect of accuracy.
Another great feature of these machines is that they allow you to catch the errors quickly. With an optical inspection unit, the SMT (Surface Mount Technology) offers great support. While the unit detects errors, the operator can inform the SMT line so that the errors could be fixed as soon as possible. As a result, you can enjoy an awesome first-pass-yield. Plus, you won’t have to spend a lot of time on rework either. It can be difficult to remain consistent while visual inspections are in progress. Although an experienced inspector can use a quick process for all the boards, there is a lot of human error involved in the process.
