This invention discloses an online inspection
system and method for
printed circuit board (PCB) apertures, specifically comprising: a platform for undisturbed, uniform-speed transmission, used to carry and drive the PCB through the inspection
station at a
constant linear velocity; a high-resolution incremental photoelectric
encoder coaxially and directly connected to the
drive shaft end of the platform, used to output differential pulse signals that strictly correspond to the absolute displacement of the PCB in real time; a non-transparent, dual-telecentric
optical module, vertically mounted directly above the inspection
station, with an
optical distortion rate of less than 0.05%; the
optical module is equipped with a large-area global
exposure industrial camera, used to eliminate visible artifacts on the inner wall of the aperture at the edge of the
field of view caused by the perspective angle; the printed circuit boards of this invention can flow through the inspection
machine at extremely high speeds. The production capacity of one
machine is equivalent to ten traditional stop-and-go automatic optical inspection machines, greatly reducing the depreciation costs of factory equipment.
