Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of AOI inspection technology, specifically to an AOI inspection device for PCBA production. Background Technology

[0002] AOI (Automated Optical Inspection) in PCBA (Printed Circuit Board Assembly) production is a non-contact automated visual inspection technology used to inspect the quality of printed circuit board assembly. AOI inspection devices use high-resolution cameras and specific lighting systems to capture images of the PCBA surface and use image processing software to analyze these images to detect various defects, such as missing components, misaligned components, and poor solder joints.

[0003] However, the AOI inspection device for PCBA production can only place a limited number of PCBAs during inspection, resulting in low efficiency in placing and inspecting PCBAs. In addition, the inspection components of the AOI inspection device for PCBA production are prone to accumulating impurities or dust after prolonged use, which can affect the clarity of the inspection and the effectiveness of the AOI inspection device for PCBA production.

[0004] There are currently no effective solutions to the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content
