FX series AOI has upgraded YESPC software. Is suited for high-volume or high-mix manufacturing, providing inspection of 01005 components. Includes Advanced Fusion Lighting and 5 megapixel color image processing. Software is a web-based statistical process control tool that can be used for real-time and historical charts and inspection reports. In real-time mode, it focuses on defect prevention by monitoring for unwanted trends in the manufacturing process. User selectable “chart windows” can be configured to show defect paretos, yield trends, machine utilization, as well as X-Y positional and Cp/Cpk data.
