Customer Testimonials

Our production line previously used traditional AOI, where model changeover and program tuning required over 3 hours of tedious adjustment by engineers. After deploying Iris Ant's T7 Inline AOI, programming is completed in under 5 minutes using just a single good board capture. Line setup efficiency has improved exponentially with virtually zero idle downtime, driving immediate throughput gains.

Detecting components on black substrates was our biggest operational bottleneck—traditional AOI produced constant false alarms, forcing operators to review hundreds of false calls daily. Iris Ant's AI AOI excels in identical-color interference scenarios, reducing false alarms by over 80%. This significantly alleviated operator strain while maintaining consistent yield stability.

Our products utilize Flexible Printed Circuits (FPC), where board warpage frequently led to missed defects with legacy AOI systems. The T7 Inline AOI delivered inspection performance beyond expectations, accurately inspecting warped boards with near-zero escape rates. Operators mastered program setup within 30 minutes, eliminating the requirement to hire specialized AOI programming engineers.

Automotive electronics require rigorous soldering standards. We tested multiple AOI brands previously, but none could reliably inspect DIP solder joints due to inconsistent standards. Iris Ant's AI classification model allows custom training aligned precisely with our internal quality specifications. DIP inspection accuracy improved dramatically, enabling us to pass client quality audits seamlessly.

SPI is our primary gatekeeper for quality control. Iris Ant's SF-2 Series 3D SPI delivers outstanding repeatability and stable inspection for 0201 solder paste deposits. The built-in SPC analytical engine provides early warnings for stencil wear and paste consistency shifts, helping us intercept batch defects proactively. Intercepting defects at the printing stage prevents downstream repair costs from multiplying by hundreds of times.

Medical electronics involve low-volume, high-mix production with frequent line changeovers. The T3 Pro Offline AOI fits our facility perfectly—it occupies minimal space and can be deployed on demand. Voice-controlled operation allows hands-free execution for operators. While traditional offline AOI programming took half a day, Iris Ant completes program setup in 5 minutes.

Our high-speed dual-lane lines demand strict cycle times. The T7D Dual-Lane Inline AOI meets our requirements through parallel dual-lane inspection, instantly maximizing throughput. The continuous learning function is highly practical—operators log false calls daily, and the AI model self-optimizes without waiting days for field service engineer adjustments.

Traditional AOI requires dedicated programming engineers, which small facilities cannot easily sustain. Iris Ant features a user-friendly interface that allows operators to set up programs independently after 30 minutes of training. This alone saves over $20,000 annually in labor overhead. Additionally, lifetime free software updates eliminate hidden recurring fees.

Our PCBs contain black inductors and crystal oscillators where surface markings routinely triggered false alarms on legacy systems. Iris Ant's AI intelligently ignores surface text to focus purely on structural defects. Furthermore, full local deployment ensures proprietary designs never leave our network, satisfying our clients' strict data security requirements.

Given our high-mix catalog and frequent changeovers, offline programming capability is vital. Our engineers prepare new product inspection programs in the office without interrupting active production lines. Upon changeover, programs import instantly for seamless line transition, fulfilling our vision of smart factory operation.

Aerospace standards mandate zero-defect quality control. The T5 Pro's 10 μm high-precision optics fully satisfy our inspection criteria for micro-packages and fine-pitch ICs. Over a year of continuous operation, defect escape rates have remained consistently near zero, reinforcing customer confidence in our quality assurance. Local deployment also complies strictly with security qualification mandates.
