Hi everyone, I just wanted to know where would it be preferable to postion an AOI equipment on a production line. I have known of people who prefer to use it before reflow and some who have suggested after reflow. What would the implications be if this equipment is placed prior to and after reflow? Also, if one had to evaluate an AOI equipment (not solder paste measuring equipments), then what factors would one have to consider to gage the capability of this equipment?
