PCBs are getting smaller and more complex; even a relatively simple board can be made up of thousands of soldered components. AOI monitors the quality of PCB production and corrects them in the process flow.
Automated optical inspection (AOI) systems perform visual inspections of printed circuit boards (PCB) during manufacturing in which a camera is used to scan the board in extremely fine detail to check for any defects or failures.
AOI is the integration of optics, mechanics, electronic control, and software to replace the human eye. In the real world, PCBs are getting smaller and more complex; even a relatively simple board can be made up of literally thousands of soldered components.
AOI monitors the quality of PCB production and corrects them in the process flow, which is a key to success in today's competitive PCB production environment.
