Doesn't Anker use x-rays or similar in the production process?


We only do Xray inspection when doing FA, and not always. They are costly and time consuming.


Sounds like a job for AI ...


I doubt it, that’s some Apple level QA that hardly any company does.


> that’s some Apple level QA

Are you nuts?

X-ray inspection is not that rare, there’s even small assembly houses here (Spain) that can do xray automated inspection.

This has been standard for years to the point I’ve been sent forms for assembly houses RFQ where there are checkboxes for xray inspection, and I haven’t handled a serious assembly development in ~4 years.

What’s new and they’re advertising here is CT, which is another level.


Literally on the same website as this post you'll find testimonials of companies that use CT scanners to find leaks in cosmetics bottles, and to refine the fit of a deodorant cap.
