Inspection system for use in production line for inspecting external appearance of printed circuit board during surface assembly process, has transport paths arranged next to each other, where position of paths are alterable in Y-direction

摘要

The system (1) has a transport unit for carrying printed circuit boards (K1, K2), and a camera for making a blueprint of the boards. A moving mechanism moves the camera into a photocopy position over the boards, where a transport direction of the boards is an X-direction, and a direction orthogonally intersecting the X-direction in a horizontal plane is a Y-direction. The transport unit comprises transport paths (11, 12) that are arranged next to each other and formed in a position independent of transporting the boards, where a position of the paths are alterable in the Y-direction.
