Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, UK - Nordson DAGE, a division of Nordson Corporation (NASDAQ: NDSN), is delighted to announce that it has been awarded a 2012 Global Technology Award in the category of Software - Production for its X-Plane(TM) Analysis - Sub Micron X-Ray Inspection System Option. The award was presented to the company on Tuesday, October 16, 2012 at a ceremony that took place at the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel in Orlando, FL during the 2012 SMTA International Conference.
X-Plane(TM) is a revolutionary option for Nordson DAGE's range of industry-leading X-ray inspection systems that uses a proprietary, patent applied for tomosynthesis, or CT technique, to create 2-D X-ray slices in any plane of a printed circuit board assembly, without the need to cut or destroy the board. In this way, the superior image quality that Nordson DAGE X-ray systems always provide can now be extended into separating individual layers at a level of excellence that the traditional laminography technique cannot achieve. X-Plane(TM) technology is quick, simple and easy-to-use.
The board is placed in the Nordson DAGE X-ray inspection system and oblique-angled X-ray images are taken 360° around the region of interest. X-Plane(TM) shows the position and size of voids at joint interfaces and other locations within BGA, CSP, QFN, LGA, etc. Additionally, the technology can identify Head-on-Pillow (HoP) and open joints
Premiering in 2005, the Global Technology Awards program is an annual celebration of product excellence in electronics surface mount assembly. Premier products based on the finest examples of creative advancement in technology are chosen by a distinguished panel of industry experts.
