Tagarno has developed a new app for their digital microscopes. The app enables users to capture an image of a golden sample to match next to a live screen image of a circuit board or captured sample image.
The app can be used to perform first-rate quality control of circuit boards after component placement or reflow. By comparing PCB samples to a reference image of a golden sample in various ways, the app allows the operator to achieve a high quality in production and efficiently catch mistakes and misplaced components in time.
A mouse and keyboard connected directly to the microscope is enough to control a variety of features displayed on a monitor.
It is crucial to detect differences and faults in products and production so displaying the reference and sample images next to each other easily shows any errors to the sample and allows users to quickly make the necessary adjustments.
Panning and zooming in on the reference and sample images makes it possible to take a closer look at a sample or to get the full overview of the results.
Toggling between viewing the reference image and the sample image on the screen with a one-second interval allows a quick comparison of the two boards, revealing any mismatch and deviation for the sample in question.
