(April 22, 2008) MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel — Camtek Ltd. unveiled its Mustang line of automated optical inspection equipment targeting high-density PCBs used in mobile consumer products, such as cell phones and digital cameras. Mustang systems track defect types during inspection and handle a range of panel sizes and types.
The systems replace manned microscopes in detecting defects in the final manufacturing stages, according to Camtek. Mustang series machines are build on the Pegasus IC-substrate inspection technology, and use automatic cassette-to-cassette material handling and sorting. They detect copper splash, missing solder, discoloration, defects on gold, scratched solder, contamination, and other problems.
Mustangs feature dual illumination systems and a sensitive CCD camera to detect defects in metal plating and soldermask layers. One is optimized for plated metallic surfaces (gold/silver/tin/OTC/copper) and the other for a variety of soldermask colors and hues. An enhanced Image Acquisition system, along with Image Processing engine, enable detection of fine defects and micro-cracks on most applications. Auto defect classification capabilities track defect occurrences by type.
Inspection covers single-sided or both sides of PCBs, using flipper concurrently while scanning and sorting panels. The first machine, Model 600, is installed at several customer sites. Camtek will exhibit the Mustang at KPCA in Seoul, Korea, April 23 to 25. The company also launched a new Korean Website, www.camtekorea.co.kr, to coincide with the launch.
