The OptiCon BasicLine 1M/4M is a stand-alone automated optical inspection (AOI) system for manual loading of components, PCBs, and assemblies. The centerpiece of the family is an extendable camera design, which allows alternative selection of a 1- and a 4-Mpixel camera module. Additional camera options support through-hole-technology (THT) component inspection, color inspection, and 3-D measurement. The system also offers an angled-view capability for the inspection of the pins of plastic-leaded chip-carrier (PLCC) and small-outline J-lead (SOJ) components.

The new OptiCon BasicLine 1M/4M platform is designed to offer short debug times, minimal false call rates, and high fault coverage. It also employs a linear drive system that results in an up to 50% higher test speed, compared with earlier generations.
