For efficient and reliable inspection and quality control of electronic boards in SMT lines, it is crucial to carefully consider the characteristics of your light source.
Force testing rarely draws attention until it fails. When components crack, seals leak, or devices do not activate as expected, engineers often trace the problem back to how force was applied, measured, or interpreted.
In many laboratories, confidence in physical testing is based on the assumption that results are consistent and that, if a method works once, it can be repeated. However, shifts in operator technique, environmental conditions, or instrument calibration can undermine that confidence.
