Reeling Circle Test of Circuit Board

Virtual Connector Gauge checks Circuit Board Connectors for Pluggability

In an automatic circuit board assembly process, a wide variety of circuit board connectors are automatically pressed with the circuit board. In order to ensure that the circuit board connector can be plugged in in advance, our camera system checks the pin geometries of the plug in advance and uses the pin positions to determine whether it can be plugged into the circuit board image.

This is precisely where the strength of the virtual connector gauge by senswork becomes apparent. A wide variety of plug geometries with a wide variety of pin positions can be checked by simply changing the program.

Another camera unitlizes the so-called fiducial marks to determine the board position with an accuracy of 10 µm in order to ensure that the connector is pressed into the board safely.
