The PCBA process X-ray inspection is an non-destructive test method that can be used to detect soldering, wiring, and packaging of PCBA.

The Following Are Some of the Advantages.

1) It Can Detect Defects that Other Methods Cannot

PCBA X-ray inspection can detect defects which traditional methods cannot detect.

• Welding Defects

Soldering defects in PCB Assembly include solder joint voids, cracks, and solder bridging.

• Packaging Defects

Package defects include package cracks, deformations of the package, and open circuits.

• Wiring Defects

Wiring defects include wire breaks, short circuits, open circuits, etc.

PCBAs that have these defects can perform poorly or even fail. These defects can be detected by X-ray tests.

2) High Efficiency and Fast Speed

PCBA process X-ray inspection can be completed very quickly.

This can reduce the time it takes to get a product on the market and improve the efficiency of circuit board production.

The PCBA (Printed Circuit Board Assembly), inspection process is very fast. This is mainly because of the following factors:

Images with high resolution: X-rays produce images that clearly show detail without physical contact.

Instant imaging: X-ray inspection systems are capable of generating images instantly without any waiting or processing steps.

Automation: X-rays can be integrated in the production line to automatically transmit images without manual intervention.

Multi-angle Inspection: By moving the handle, the X-ray can inspect the PCBA at different angles. This allows a complete inspection without the PCBA being moved.

3) Non-Destructive Testing, No Damage to PCBA

The PCBA process X-ray inspection method is a nondestructive test that can improve the efficiency of testing.

This is most evident in the following:

• X-Ray Penetration

PCBAs can be penetrated by X-rays, a type electromagnetic wave that has a strong penetration power.

The PCBA can be inspected from the inside using X-rays without damaging its surface.

• Energy of X-Ray

You can adjust the X-ray energy to suit your needs.

Low-energy X-rays are used for PCBA inspection to minimize damage.

• Protective Measures for X-Ray Inspection Equipment

The X-ray Inspection Device is equipped with protective device to prevent the X-rays harming human body and PCBA.

Applications of X-Ray Inspection

PCBA process X-ray inspection can be performed at various stages in PCBA production including:

1) Test Before Reflow

A pre-inspection prior to reflowing can detect any welding defects and prevent them from becoming larger during reflow.

2) Final Inspection After Reflow

A final inspection can be performed after reflow to ensure PCB performance and reliability.

3) Full Monitoring During PCBA Production

A full monitoring of the PCBA manufacturing process will allow for early detection and correction of any problems.

Conclusion

PCBA Process X-ray Inspection is an important method of quality control in the PCBA Manufacturing Process and has the benefit of non-destructive tests.

This can be used to improve the quality of PCBs, their reliability and competitiveness on the market.
