MV Technology Ltd. a manufacturer of automated inspection and measurement machines has announced the development of the VIA-10 Microvia Inspection and Measurement System. They have also appointed Maintech Inc. of Huntingdon Valley, PA as their exclusive North American Distributor for the VIA-10. The VIA-10 can inspect and measure through- and blind-holes as drilled or after cleaning, tenting or plating operations. The system uses high speed linear motors and patent pending machine vision techniques with custom multi-colored and multi-angled LED lighting to identify missing, blocked, offset, or misshaped through or blind holes as small as 100 microns (0.004 inches).
The system can also handle high aspect ratio through holes up to 15:1. It can be integrated with loaders and unloaders supplied by Maintech for totally automated inspection of a stack of flexible circuits or panels at speeds faster than 5-10 drilling machines. The VIA-10 will be demonstrated on the Maintech booth.
