[0002] AOI (Automated Optical Inspection) is an essential technology in electronic component production. It utilizes high-speed cameras and advanced image processing technology to perform high-precision and efficient defect detection on production objects such as PCBs. Through real-time scanning, image acquisition, and comparative analysis, AOI equipment can quickly identify defects such as multiple parts, missing parts, and poor soldering, and automatically mark them, providing strong support for production adjustments and quality control.
[0003] In the current SMT industry, with the widespread use of flexible printed circuits (FPCs) and large PCBs, these specialized boards present numerous challenges during inspection. The tendency of FPCs to warp, and the potential for large boards to collapse under their own weight, directly impact the focal stability of inspection equipment cameras, resulting in blurred images and, in turn, reduced inspection accuracy. Furthermore, PCB warpage complicates the selection of reference planes, leading to offset test positions and inaccurate or even invalid inspection results. To address this issue, a 3D-AOI inspection device was proposed. Utility Model Content
