Altus & G&B Electronic Designs Collaborate on Inspection Enhancements Electronics assembly equipment distribution firm Altus Group Ltd has worked with contract manufacturer G. & B. ELECTRONIC DESIGNS LIMITED in order to significantly improve its inspection processes. This has been achieved with the selection and subsequent installation of a Koh Young Europe GmbH Zenith Alpha HS+. The advanced true 3D automated optical inspection (AOI) unit will allow elevated levels of printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) to be consistently attained. It represents a major upgrade over the 2D inspection equipment that G&B Electronic Designs was previously relying upon - via which the inspection of complex or reflective components proved to be particularly problematic. The Zenith Alpha HS+ features whole-board foreign material inspection, ensuring contaminants do not compromise assembly integrity, and can inspect components up to 25mm in height. Furthermore, its AI-powered auto programming function allows much faster set-up, with shorter programming time being required, plus far less opportunity for human errors. According to Steve Tumber, G&B Electronic Designs’ Head of Operations; “Koh Young's reputation for market-leading technology was well-known.
