The present invention relates to a remote control system of a vision inspection apparatus for a surface mount equipment and a remote control method using the same, and more particularly, to a surface mount apparatus for controlling a vision inspection apparatus in real time at a distance using a wireless transceiver. The present invention relates to a remote control system of a vision inspection device and a remote control method using the same.

In general, surface mounter technology (SMT) refers to a technology for attaching and soldering a surface mounter (SMD) to a surface of a printed circuit board (PCB). Accordingly, the surface mounted component is mounted on the surface of the printed circuit board by the surface mounting technology.

Specifically, a process of mounting a component by surface mounting technology (hereinafter, referred to as a 'surface mounting process') is a process of loading a printed circuit board, and a cream lead (Pad) of the loaded printed circuit board ( Process of applying cream solder, mounting of surface-mount components on the applied cream solder, soldering the mounted components, inspecting the soldered printed circuit board, and unloading of the soldered printed circuit board. (Unloading) process. Therefore, the printed circuit board is sequentially transported according to this process, and the components are mounted on the surface thereof.

On the other hand, if the surface mounting process is carried out with a large number of manpower, competitiveness in terms of cost or output (output) is very low. Therefore, in recent years, in order to increase such competitiveness, most processes are being progressed using automated facilities.

Hereinafter, referring to FIG. 1, an example of a conventional surface mounting apparatus 90 for automatically performing a surface mounting process is as follows.

As shown in the figure, the conventional surface mounting facility 90 is composed of a plurality of process lines (Line, 80) to proceed with the surface mounting process automatically. Each process line 80 includes a loading device (not shown) for loading a printed circuit board (not shown), a coating device 10 for applying cream lead to pads of the loaded printed circuit board, and applied cream. Inspection for mounting a mounting apparatus (20) for mounting a surface mount component (not shown) on the lead, a reflow apparatus (30) for soldering the mounted component, and a soldered printed circuit board. A device 40 and an unloading device 50 for unloading a soldered printed circuit board are provided. Accordingly, the printed circuit board is loaded by the loading device, and then the components are mounted on the surface by being sequentially transferred to each device according to the surface mounting process.

On the other hand, the inspection device 40 for inspecting the printed circuit board is installed for the purpose of reducing the defective product by inspecting the defect of each component, an interlock generator (not shown) to stop the entire process line 80 ), A vision inspector (not shown) for comparing and analyzing an image of a part, and an alarm generator (not shown) for notifying the outside of a defective part. Accordingly, the inspection apparatus 40 determines the quality of the parts by analyzing the image of each part by using the vision inspection unit, and when a defective part is found, the entire process line 80 to recognize the process manager. Will stop and generate an alarm.
