AT Automation enables the detection of even small component defects using the IRSX smart infrared camera. The app can be adapted to PCB inspection with little configuration effort, so that the PCBs are evaluated as good or bad based on their thermal signature. The camera sends the results as signals to the process control system. If the PCB inspection involves extremely small areas, the IRSX can also be equipped with microscope optics.
