360° inspection, now with new oblique and direct viewer.

The Lynx is widely used in the electronics industry providing unrivalled ergonomic performance and optimum clarity with superb optics. In addition, the Lynx now benefits from LED illumination, projecting brighter, whiter, long-life illumination on the PCB. Consumable costs have also been greatly reduced with costs decreasing by more than 80% and lamp life lasting up to an impressive 10,000 hours. The dimmable LEDs allow for every application to benefit from the precise intensity of illumination.

The LED illumination can now be used in conjunction with the impressive oblique and direct viewer. Coupled with the switchable direct view and the benefits of stereo viewing offered by the Lynx, surface features can be easily inspected in three dimensions without moving the workpiece, ideal for inspecting device leads, PCB via holes, connectors, solder joints, solder bumps on SMT, TAB and ball-grid array devices, and precision wafer bumping characteristics.

Lynx also benefits from Vision Engineering’s patented Dynascope eyepieceless technology to offer users advanced ergonomics by removing the restriction of conventional binocular eyepieces. Movement of the head and eyes no longer means losing the field of vision, providing complete freedom of head movement, significantly reducing operator fatigue over long periods of time. With ergonomics optimised and the oblique and direct viewer offering maximised rotational views, the system offers increased productivity and precision for inspecting PCBs.
