AI-Driven 3D Inspection Lineup – PEMTRON, an inspection equipment developer and supplier, will highlight a full portfolio of SPI, AOI, AXI, and conformal coating inspection systems designed to help manufacturers improve yield, strengthen process control, and keep pace with increasingly complex electronics production at Booth No. 39 during the SMTA Monterrey Expo & Tech Forum on April 23, 2026 in Monterrey, Mexico.
At this year’s event, PEMTRON will demonstrate how its inspection platforms are evolving beyond traditional defect detection—integrating high-resolution 3D imaging with AI-driven analytics and real-time data connectivity across the production line. The lineup on display includes SATURN, ATHENA, TWIN, CI, and JUPITER, each engineered to address specific challenges in modern SMT and advanced electronics manufacturing environments.
From high-speed solder paste inspection to deep internal defect analysis and dual-side board inspection, PEMTRON’s technologies are built to deliver faster decision-making, higher accuracy, and more consistent process outcomes directly on the factory floor.
ATHENA – AI-Driven 3D Automated Optical Inspection
ATHENA is an advanced 3D AOI system that combines high-precision measurement with artificial intelligence for automated defect classification, teaching, and OCR functionality. Its 12-way projection system eliminates shadowing effects, ensuring highly accurate inspection results. The modular platform supports multiple resolution options, including 10μm/15μm and 18μm configurations, along with optional high-resolution camera upgrades and a three-stage conveyor system for enhanced flexibility.
JUPITER – High-Precision 3D AXI Platform
JUPITER leverages advanced PCT (Phase Contrast Tomography) and 2D/3D X-ray imaging to deliver in-depth analysis of internal defects. Seamlessly integrated with PEMTRON’s AOI algorithms, JUPITER enables synchronized SPI/AOI/AXI data sharing for smarter inspection and real-time process feedback.
TWIN – Dual-Side 3D AOI in a Single Pass
TWIN is a high-efficiency 3D AOI system capable of inspecting both the top and bottom sides of a PCB simultaneously. By eliminating the need for board flipping, TWIN significantly reduces cycle time while maintaining high detection accuracy. Its advanced optical system is optimized for densely populated and double-sided assemblies, improving throughput without compromising inspection reliability.
SATURN – High-Performance 3D Solder Paste Inspection
SATURN delivers precise solder paste inspection using quad Moiré projection technology, 2D color imaging, and high-resolution 3D profiling. Available in 10μm/15μm or 18μm configurations and equipped with up to a 10MP camera, SATURN provides accurate measurements of solder paste volume, height, and area—ensuring consistent process control and improved yield performance.
TROI 8800 CI – AI-Enhanced Conformal Coating Inspection
The TROI 8800 CI system provides high-precision conformal coating inspection using advanced optical technology and optional inline thickness measurement. Powered by AI-based defect recognition, the system identifies coating issues such as voids, bubbles, and uneven coverage, supporting manufacturers in meeting high-reliability requirements.
Driving Smart, Connected Inspection
From SMT process control to advanced X-ray defect analysis, PEMTRON’s inspection portfolio is designed to elevate manufacturing quality, increase throughput, and simplify complex inspection workflows. By integrating AI, high-resolution imaging, and real-time data connectivity across SPI, AOI, AXI, and coating inspection platforms, PEMTRON continues to advance the future of intelligent electronics manufacturing.
