Hi Ioan!  There is quite a bit of excellent X-ray equipment available on 
the market and a trip to IPC APEX would be one good way to evaluate 
multiple equipment vendors at one time! You need to decide just what 
capabilities you want in an X-ray system because the more capability, the 
greater the cost. We use Glenbrook Jewel Box 90 systems in our 
manufacturing facilities - good, rugged systems with good overall 
capability for voids, shorts, etc. and we use Fein Focus in our Failure 
Analysis laboratory - very high tech system for the necessities of failure 
analysis investigations. My recommendation is pull together a list of 
"must have" and "would like to have" system capabilities, match that to 
you budget and use the APEX opportunity to conduct your evaluations of the 
various X-ray system suppliers. Good luck.

[TN] X-Ray equipment






Dear Technos,

 

One more topic: what are your experiences with X-Ray equipment? Which
brand/model would you recommend or not advise?

 

We are a typical EMS and would like to inspect as accurately as possible
BGAs and leadless. So voids and hole-fill measuring capability is
desired. If possible, we would like to be able to localize an open BGA
joint.

 

Not exactly looking for big budget laminography machines like the 5DX,
but it should at least be 2D plus rotation capability. Or a regular, not
so loaded 3D system...

 

On-line and off-line answers welcome.

 

Thanks,

 

Ioan
