Integration of Additional AOI Capacity

With increased demand for our surface mount assembly services, Gemini Tec have now integrated additional AOI capacity and increased capability for 'on board' inspection. 
Adding to our current MIRTEC system, the new MIRTEC MV3L is the very latest AOI system available for offline PCBA inspection.


Complete with a host of technologies, such as 10 Mega-pixel cameras for top down and side angled view inspection, the MIRTEC was chosen for its speed and accuracy to correctly identify any potential PCBA errors within the manufacturing process.

The Engineer’s Guide To High-Quality PCB Design

Virtually every electronic product is constructed with one or more printed-circuit boards (PCBs). The PCBs hold the ICs and other components and implement the interconnections between them. PCBs are created in abundance for portable electronics, computers, and entertainment equipment. They are also made for test equipment, manufacturing, and spacecraft.
Eventually, almost every EE must design a PCB, which isn’t something that’s taught in school. Yet engineers, technicians, and even novice PCB designers can create high-quality PCBs for any and every purpose with confidence that the outcome will meet or exceed the objective. Also, these designs can be completed on schedule and within budget while meeting the design requirements. Designers just need to mind the essential documentation, design steps and strategies, and final checks.
