We Are Excited to Share Insights into Our Company and Innovative Technologies!
To start, we introduce a key pillar of our quality control: X-ray inspection.
With our X-ray inspection system, we ensure the quality of electronic assemblies, PCBs, and components. This technology enables the inspection of hidden or hard-to-access components that are not visible using traditional inspection methods like Automated Optical Inspection (AOI).
What Can X-Ray Do in EMS?
1. Quality Control and Defect Detection
• Solder joint inspection: Analysis of solder connections, especially for BGA and QFN components, which are hidden beneath the package.
• Through-hole solder penetration: Verification of solder fill levels in THT component connections.
• Voids in solder joints: Detection of air pockets, cavities, or irregularities in soldering.
• Short circuits and interruptions in PCBs: Identification of shorts or breaks in inner PCB layers.
2. Process Optimization
• Manufacturing process analysis: Fine-tuning soldering processes and stencil printing to improve quality and reduce defect rates.
• Preventive measures: Early detection of potential weak points, such as problematic solder joints, before they cause larger failures.
3. Product Validation
• Prototype inspection: Supporting customers during development to ensure that new designs and prototypes meet quality standards.
• Mass production: First-article inspections and sample testing to maintain consistent product quality.
4. Failure Analysis
• Defect investigation: Identifying production errors or material defects to determine root causes and corrective actions.
• Detection of broken bond wires, structural damage, and counterfeit ICs, preventing issues caused by manipulated components.
5. Benefits of X-Ray Inspection
✅ Non-destructive testing: Components remain undamaged during inspection.
✅ High precision: Even the smallest defects are detectable.
✅ Time and cost savings: Helps prevent future failures and costly recalls.
Conclusion
X-ray inspection is an indispensable tool in modern electronics manufacturing. It ensures quality, reliability, and longevity—especially for complex and densely packed PCB designs.
