I. Product Positioning and Industry Value

In the SMT (Surface Mount Technology) production process, first article inspection is a key link to ensure product quality and avoid mass production risks. Traditional first article inspection relies on manual operation, which has pain points such as low inspection efficiency, high error rate, high labor cost and difficulty in tracing inspection results, making it difficult to meet the requirements of modern electronic manufacturing for precision, efficiency and compliance.
As the core R&D product of Shengdian Electronics, the SD-FAI6000V Intelligent First Article Tester integrates optical recognition, automated inspection and intelligent data analysis, and is specially designed for the first article inspection scenario of SMT production lines. By replacing manual operation with an automated process, the product realizes the full-process intelligence from inspection program generation, component identification, result judgment to report output. It effectively solves the pain points of traditional inspection, helps electronic manufacturing enterprises improve quality control capabilities, reduce production costs and strengthen the traceability of production processes. It is applicable to SMT production scenarios in various fields such as consumer electronics, automotive electronics, industrial control and medical equipment.

II. Core Product Advantages

With the core characteristics of "high efficiency, intelligence, ease of use and reliability", the SD-FAI6000V has formed a differentiated competitive advantage in the field of first article inspection equipment, which is specifically reflected in the following dimensions:
Advantage Dimension Core Value Implementation Effect

Labor Saving One piece of equipment can replace 2-3 manual inspection positions The annual per capita cost is reduced by about 100,000-150,000 RMB, significantly cutting down labor expenses
Quality Improvement Optical recognition + automatic data judgment to avoid manual subjective errors The inspection accuracy reaches 99.9%, and the defective rate in mass production is reduced by more than 30%
Process Standardization Standardized inspection process + automatic traceability mechanism Meet the industry compliance requirements such as ISO and IATF16949, facilitating customer factory audits
Easy Maintenance and Upgrade Modular design + remote software upgrade The equipment maintenance cost is reduced by 20%, and function iteration does not require shutdown modification

III. Core Functional Features

The SD-FAI6000V builds a full-process intelligent first article inspection system through eight core functions, covering the complete link from inspection preparation to result output, and balancing efficiency and precision.

1. Dual-Map Visual Inspection

The system software supports dual-map display of "panoramic map + local enlarged map":
  • Panoramic Map: Displays the distribution of all components on the PCB board and the inspection progress, clearly presenting the overall inspection status;

  • Local Enlarged Map: Magnifies the details of tiny components (such as resistors of 0402 specification) to ensure that employees can clearly compare the physical silk screen with standard parameters and avoid misjudgment caused by visual errors;

  • Auxiliary Function: Cooperates with voice broadcast prompts (such as "Currently inspecting R117 resistor" and "C84 capacitor inspection PASS") to further improve inspection efficiency.

2. Automatic Generation of Inspection Program in Three Minutes

The traditional inspection program requires manual entry of component parameters item by item, which is time-consuming and error-prone. The SD-FAI6000V supports:
  • Multi-Format File Import: Automatically identifies the customer's BOM table (Excel/text document), coordinate file and PDF position map, and is compatible with the BOM format specifications of different customers;

  • Intelligent Rule Definition: Exclusive BOM analysis rules can be set for different customers and different products to adapt to diversified production needs;

  • Optimal Path Planning: After the program is generated, it automatically selects the optimal inspection path and marks it with a dotted line in the PCB drawing to avoid repeated movement of the inspection fixture and shorten the inspection time.

3. Automatic Identification of Component Silk Screen/Direction/Polarity

Aiming at the problems of "wrong component, reverse direction and reverse polarity" which are prone to occur in SMT production, the equipment realizes through a high-precision optical system:
  • Coverage of Multiple Component Types: Supports automatic identification of components such as IC chips, diodes, triodes and resistors with characters;

  • Core Technology: Adopts OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology, and resistors of 0402 specification and above do not need to make component templates, and silk screen inspection can be completed with one click;

  • Polarity Judgment: Through optical comparison technology, it automatically identifies the positive and negative poles of diodes and the Pin direction of IC chips, avoiding the burnout risk caused by reverse polarity.

4. Automatic Judgment of Inspection Results

The equipment integrates a high-definition scanner (customized Zhongjing 9980XL Plus) and a high-precision digital bridge (CED-9587V LCR METER) to realize:
  • Automatic Data Collection: The scanner obtains the appearance image of components, and the bridge collects parameter data such as resistors, capacitors and inductors;

  • Intelligent Judgment: The system compares the measured data with the standard parameters of the BOM and automatically outputs the results of "PASS (qualified)" or "FAIL (unqualified)", avoiding manual subjective judgment errors;

  • Abnormal Prompt: The FAIL result is marked with the abnormal type synchronously (such as "resistor value exceeding standard" and "reverse polarity"), facilitating employees to quickly locate problems.

5. Fully Automatic Inspection Report Generation

After the inspection is completed, the system automatically generates a standardized inspection report without manual intervention, supporting:
  • Full-Dimension Data Presentation: The report includes key information such as product number, work order number, production line, inspection time, total number of components, number of PASS/FAIL, pass rate and inspector, meeting the traceability requirements;

  • Multi-Format Export and Sharing: The report can be exported in PDF format, supporting archiving, printing or direct sending to customers/quality departments via email;

  • Report Example: The inspection report of a certain product shows that "the total number of components is 64, the number of PASS is 64, the pass rate is 100%, and the inspection time is 1 minute", with clear and traceable data.

6. DCT Intelligent Auxiliary Inspection

For special components such as LEDs and diodes, the equipment adds a DCT gear based on the LCR bridge:
  • LED Inspection: Through forward and reverse power-on lighting tests, it automatically judges the direction and luminous performance of LEDs;

  • Diode Inspection: Automatically detects the forward and reverse voltage drop, distinguishes the polarity of diodes, and avoids circuit failures caused by reverse installation.

7. Multi-Dimensional Component Query and Retrieval

It supports flexible component retrieval functions, facilitating quick problem location or historical data tracing:
  • Retrieval by Status: It can filter "uninspected components", "NG components" and "inspected components" to avoid missed inspection;

  • Retrieval by Attribute: Supports retrieval by part number, location number and component type (such as resistor, capacitor, IC), for example, "find all capacitor inspection records of part number 1210030015";

  • Historical Data Tracing: The retrieval results simultaneously display the inspection time, measured parameters and judgment results, facilitating quality analysis.

8. Seamless Connection with ERP/MES Systems

To realize the data connection of the whole production process, the equipment supports connection with enterprise ERP (such as SAP, UFIDA) and MES systems:
  • Two-Way Data Interaction: The inspection report can be automatically uploaded to the MES system to update the production progress and quality data synchronously;

  • Manual Capture Support: If the customer's system does not support automatic upload, the report data can be manually captured through the system interface to ensure the closed-loop of production data;

  • Management and Control Value: Helps enterprises realize the full-process visual management and control of "production-inspection-quality", facilitating management to grasp the production status in real time.
