EZPro Software from Marantz for Automatic Optical Inspection (AOI) machine programming harnesses the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
This enables the preparation of approximately 70% of an AOI programme in typically 20 minutes using only CAD + Gerber data, eliminating the need for a PCB. Additionally, with ODB++ integration, the software achieves even faster programming times, taking a maximum of approximately 10 minutes.
The software follows a streamlined, programmer-independent procedure, reducing dependency on specific individuals and constant fine-tuning and enhancing overall operational efficiency. Marantz believes that even users with minimal technical expertise can operate the software effectively.
AI plays a pivotal role in the software’s capabilities, according to the company. EZPro recognises CAD formats and footprints of package types effortlessly, including multi-panel recognition for enhanced accuracy and precision in programming. The comprehensive AI package recognition extends to all three dimensions of body and lead dimensions for various package types, such as SOP’s, SOT’s, QFP’s, and more.
EZPro Software seamlessly integrates across the ISO-Spector true 3D AOI system and the full range of Mek Through-Hole Technology (THT) AOI systems, providing versatility and compatibility across multiple inspection platforms.
By combining true AI with a user-friendly interface, Marantz Electronics believes it has achieved unprecedented efficiency and accuracy in AOI machine programming.
