What Is the X-ray Inspection Process?
The X-ray process works by accelerating electrons with high voltage and directing them to hit a metal target. This generates powerful, penetrating X-rays.
When these rays interact with the atoms in a circuit board, some are absorbed, and others pass through.
The transmitted rays are captured by a detector, and then analyzed by computer software to identify internal structures or defects.
The Brand Behind Jeenoce’PCB X-ray Inspection Equipment
The X-ray inspection machine comes from a UK-based company that has specialized in PCB, semiconductor, and other high-end inspection fields for decades. It's a leader in non-destructive testing with strong industry recognition.
What Types of Equipment Can Inspect PCBs?
PCB inspection equipment includes：
· AOI (Automated Optical Inspection) based on optical principles, including 3D AOI.
· X-ray inspection systems, both 2D and 3D.
· Other functional test equipment.
Optical and X-ray inspections often work in tandem, complementing each other.
