Mek partners with Haprotec to fully automate THT inspection

July 14, 2017 - The Mek SpectorBOX broke ground in AOI when it was introduced several years ago. Its look up and look down capabilities made it suitable for THT inspection, eliminating the need for board flipping while providing the ability to examine every defect in microscopic detail.
Haprotec is an experienced systems supplier for THT assembly lines and automated factory logistics. They provide solutions for both assembly and test processes, including custom built machines.
Now, the integration of the Mek SpectorBOX with Haprotec’s automated production lines is designed to raise the quality and capabilities of Automated Assembly lines with AOI for THT. Hands free Inspection of THT Components, Placement, Pin-In-Hole as well as Selective and Wave soldering is now possible. In addition, these automated lines can integrate Track and Trace and MES systems including XML and RFID data transport.
