What considerations should be taken into account when implementing AOI into a lead-free manufacturing line?

AOI systems are capable of inspecting lead-free processes with only minor tuning required. Since lead-free alloys do not wet as well as leaded alloy, wetting is a major consideration for inspection. When possible, nitrogen should be added to the reflow process. Additionally, the use of a nitrogen atmosphere reduces the amount of re-tuning.

How is the performance of an AOI system affected by lead-free?

Besides the initial tuning required, the performance of the AOI system should not be affected by the change to lead-free.
