Samsung Electronics Mechatronics Center (Suwon City, Korea) has given ASC International (Maple Plain, MN) sales and service responsibilities for their line of FARA-VSS Series automatic optical inspection (AOI) equipment in the North America. Founded in 1992, ASC International has grown as a supplier of AOI for 3-D solder paste measurement.

"The Samsung brand name has a reputation for providing reliable, feature-rich products at affordable prices," said Jon Arneson, president of ASC International. "Samsung's AOI products are no exception, and align very nicely with ASC's product strategy. Samsung provides a total solution for surface-mount inspection with post-paste, pre- and post- reflow inspection systems and have been very successful in Asia and Europe. We think the timing for right for North America, given the recent market turnaround."

At APEX 2004 in Anaheim, CA (Feb. 24-26), ASC will introduce Samsung's latest model, the VSS-3EL to the North American market. The color camera-based system provides high speed and high resolution with the capability of inspecting 0201s. In addition, options such as repair software, SPC software and line monitoring software help take the guesswork out of inspection data interpretation.
