Beck Optronic Solutions has a very successful record in the design and supply of optical systems across a wide range of industries. In particular our high performance lenses and innovative cameras with integrated lighting systems have given manufacturers in the printed circuit board industries the ability to measure component and board positions to better than 5μm.
Beck Optronic Solutions has
considerable experience in the design and manufacture of a wide
range of innovative registration cameras for use in solder paste
machines. These cameras are extremely compact and have a
number of very tightly integrated features. They contain either one
or two video detector arrays; four separate lighting systems for
direct and indirect illumination and incorporate the lighting
decoder and driver boards. To achieve registration accuracies of
better than 5μm, the cameras record and analyse two images
simultaneously, the optical systems are telecentric, have large
depth of field and have diffraction-limited performance. It is
remarkable that these systems can achieve these accuracies even
while the camera is moving at speeds of the order of 1m/s!
Equally demanding are the
positional accuracy requirements for electronic component
'pick-and-place' machines. We have much experience with cameras for
component placement and supply a large number of high performance
telecentric registration lenses for a large range of
configurations.
Our cameras and lenses are supplied
fully tested, calibrated and characterised and the Client can
integrate them into his systems without further testing. We have
considerable experience in the pre-press industries and have
designed and supplied optics for both input and output scanners for
both film and direct-to-plate (dtp) systems. The optics range from
temperature compensated doublets, through innovative and very high
performance f-theta scan lenses to complete dtp scan heads.
Although this industry has changed considerably in the last ten
years our expertise gained in this complex field is perhaps second
to none, particularly in the field of manufacture of the extremely
demanding f-theta scan optics.
Reflecting
objectives are renowned for their unique optical properties,
and BOS is one of very few companies worldwide designing and
manufacturing them. Based on a two mirror system, the
all-reflecting optics ensure they are totally free from chromatic
aberrations. They are corrected for spherical aberration, coma and
astigmatism leading to diffraction limited imaging
performance.
BOS has many years of experience
designing and manufacturing specialised machine vision optics and camera
systems, supplying leading companies worldwide.
