Fast Inspection of Solder and Sinter Pastes with Vario Line · 3D SPI

Solder Paste Inspection and Sinter Paste Inspection with Vario Line · 3D SPI

The inline inspection system for printed solder paste is characterized by a wide measuring range. Conventional solder pastes with a height of 80 μm to 150 μm can be measured just as well as sinter pastes with a height of only 20 μm. The system is available in various resolution configurations.

The solder paste depots are inspected according to the criteria of shape, height, area, bridges, volume, x/y offset and coplanarity.

The sinter paste inspection also includes the detection of particles, notches, holes and frayings in the depot.

Differences Solder Paste and Sinter Paste

Attribute Solder Paste Sinter Paste
Paste Height 80 µm … 150 µm 20 µm … 50 µm
Paste Area ~ mm² ~ cm²
Structural Size (Paste) 25 - 45 µm < 3 µm
Test Functions Height, Area, Volume, Offset, Form, Bridging Height, Area, Volume, Offset, Form, Bridging, Particle, Notches, Holes, Frayings
