Inspection

Inspection

At UK Electronics all of our products are inspected to IPC 610 standards. We have a number of inspectors throughout the business, who are specialists within their own departments i.e. surface mount, through-hole and final assembly. To aid the process we have invested in visual aids i.e. mantis inspection equipment, Scanners and AOI ( automated optical inspection) machines ensuring that the work is completed to the highest standards.

Surface Mount Inspection

Using AOI we can achieve throughput, consistency and reliability that is not achievable by manual inspection alone, all surface mount boards undergo inspection using our AOI machines ensuring that the customer receives consistent and reliable products.

We also use Mantis optical inspection to aid our inspection staff in any rework or repair they may need to undertake. Being trained inspection staff they have the knowledge and capability to modify, repair or upgrade all types of PCB’s.

Another service that we offer is BGA inspection using our Ersa under chip inspection system. We can diagnose faults and rework any affected parts all with the aim of achieving our goal of “zero defects”.

All PCBA’s manufactured by UK:E are tracked through our system. This allows us to find the root cause of any issue in a fast and effective way helping us to maintain our target of “zero defects”.

Conventional Inspection

To assist our through-hole inspection team we invested in scanner (comparator) systems to inspect the board against a controlled ‘golden’ sample thereby giving us consistency & guaranteed quality.

Final box build inspection

Many of the products we produce at UK:E go directly on to the retail market or are delivered to our customer’s client. We ensure the quality and standards of these products by using our inspectors who will devise a check list for each of the different types of products, a copy of this list can be supplied with each unit for full traceability if requested.
