Cybord’s visual AI-powered software is said to prevent defective components from being assembled onto printed circuit boards in real-time.
WILMINGTON, Del.—A new visual, AI-powered software platform developed by Cybord is reported to prevent defective electronic components from being assembled onto printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) in real time.
According to Cybord, a provider of advanced, AI-powered electronic component analytics, its Real-Time Interception (RTI) tool provides manufacturers with an advanced defense mechanism at the component level. Cybord’s RTI is said to meticulously analyze the bottom view of each component in milliseconds, enabling manufacturers to proactively mitigate risks and optimize operational efficiency.
“By identifying and discarding faulty components within milliseconds before placement, Cybord’s RTI safeguards product quality, integrity, and compliance while significantly reducing manufacturing waste and costs,” the company said in a release.
The software, already integrated into Fuji’s NXT III placing machines, is currently expanding to manufacturing lines globally.
“From the start of the Fuji America-Cybord partnership, our team was extremely impressed by the capabilities offered by Cybord’s RTI, and we are thrilled to be the first to integrate this revolutionary solution,” said Hirofumi Yoshimi, president of Fuji America Corporation, in a statement. “Cybord’s RTI aligns perfectly with our commitment to enhance quality and product integrity. By integrating the most advanced AI technology into our machines, Fuji ensures that only quality components make it onto boards. In doing so, we provide customers with an unprecedented level of reliability and efficiency.”
Cybord described its RTI platform as a “flexible, drop-in software solution” that can be easily integrated into manufacturing lines to improve quality control without disrupting production workflows. Instantaneous detection and rejection is a defining feature, as RTI reportedly identifies “every type of defect” and discards defective or unauthorized components in real time before they are assembled onto electronic circuit boards. The platform provides manufacturers with crucial analytics and monitoring and ensures compliance with IPC standards, the company said in the release.
“Manufacturers can no longer afford to take risks when it comes to product reliability, and it starts at the component level,” said Oshri Cohen, CEO of Cybord, in a statement. “The lack of visibility into component integrity is costing manufacturers time, money, and customer trust. Cybord’s AI-powered RTI solution changes the game.
“For the first time, manufacturers can see and analyze every single component in real time—and now, they can act,” he continued. “RTI surgically detects and eliminates defected or unauthorized components before they are placed on the PCB, preventing failures before they happen and delivering unmatched reliability, security, and efficiency.”
