A5 Post-Wave Through-Hole (THT) AOI

Built for the solder side.

AI inspection after wave soldering, from the solder side. A 12 MP color area-scan camera under the board inspects the through-hole solder joints and bottom-side SMD parts. Available for delivery now.

OFFLINE 2D AOI machine
OFFLINE 2DOffline · Manual Load

Benchtop AOI that runs beside the line — prototypes, small batches, and rework.

Ideal for High-Mix Production
INLINE 2D AOI machine
INLINE 2DInline · Conveyor

Sits in the SMT conveyor line and inspects every board at production speed.

Ideal for Mass Production
3D AOI machine
3DInline · 3D Measurement

Adds height measurement to catch lifted leads, coplanarity, and solder-volume defects.

Ideal for High-Reliability Boards
THROUGH-HOLE AOI machine
THROUGH-HOLEInline · Wave Line

Built for THT boards: pin and component checks before the wave (A3) and solder-joint inspection after it (A5, A6).

Ideal for DIP & Wave Lines

Frequently asked questions

Does the A5 need CAD data to program?

No. Like every DaoAI machine, the A5 programs itself from one golden board in 30 seconds to 5 minutes. No CAD, Gerber, centroid file or component library is required, and the AI runs on-premise on the machine.

Send us a board and we will tell you which machine it needs.

Half an hour with one of our engineers. Board size, mix and cycle time decide this, not a brochure.
