AI 3D AOI + SPI for wider boards and dual-lane inspection
Horus MIDI
Wider boards.
Higher throughput.
The full Horus, scaled to your throughput. Horus MIDI takes boards up to 715 mm wide and 15 kg, or runs two lanes side by side for higher throughput, in a platform just 1,090 mm long, the same length as Horus. Same 25 MP true-3D optics, same neural networks, same Neith software: 3D solder paste inspection, pre-reflow AOI and post-reflow AOI on one platform your team already knows.

Configurations

Single Lane
Horus MIDI.
Boards up to 560 x 715 mm, 0.5 to 10 mm thick and up to 15 kg, with automatic width adjustment and 60 mm clearance above and below.
Dual Lane
Two boards at a time. One platform.
Two independent 340 mm lanes inspect two boards in parallel, raising throughput without adding a second system or another metre of line. Each lane carries boards up to 560 mm long and up to 15 kg.
ITU (Integrated Tilt Unit)
Both board sides. One platform.
An automatic carrier-flipping system inspects the top and bottom of the board in sequence, inside the same Horus MIDI — no second inspection station, no manual handling. **
Options
- Triple Conveyor: Single Lane only
- Long Board: up to 815 mm, not available for ITU

What it inspects
Inspect virtually every component
From paste deposit to finished joint, read by neural networks on high-resolution 2D and true-3D data together.
Body and placement
Component location, size and position, tilt and lift, with IPC-oriented acceptance criteria.
Neith readout Locations
Leads, solder and marking
Pin and lead presence and position, solder joint condition, bridges, planarity, solder balls and detection of display scratches, with IPC-oriented acceptance criteria.
Neith readout Pin solder joint 3D / Tall white connector 3D
Difficult geometries
Reflective surfaces and metallic pins. High-density fine-pitch. Deep shadows and tall connectors. Macro and non-standard applications.
Marking and orientation
Polarity, OCR and OCV, including rotated text and supplier variants, plus resistor colour-band identification.
Neith readout OCR / Polarity
Beyond the standard inspectors
Macro builds custom tests for geometries no standard inspector covers: heights, distances, coplanarity. Anomaly detection flags deviations nobody wrote a rule for, at component level and across the whole board.
Neith readout
Anomaly detector
Step stencils
Automated inspection support.
Deposit consistency
2D/3D comparison across identical components, focusing on height.
Full-board 3D inspection
Detect unexpected paste deposits.
Board control
Pass/fail, quality flags, pass-through to AOI and repair-station inspection locks.
Neith readout SOIC smearing / Missing BGA and planarity / QFP peaking planarity

Underfill
UV-reactive underfill inspected with UV illumination, enabling 3D reconstruction to verify glue presence, distribution and applied amount.
Encapsulation
Encapsulant volume, height and coverage inspected in true 3D, so a component is confirmed protected, not just present.
LED
Position, coplanarity and die alignment inspection, even on reflective packages, with reliable identification of the LED’s true colour without interference from die fluorescence.
Pin-in-paste
Inspection of through-hole leads inserted into solder paste before reflow, verifying lead position and paste coverage during the same inspection cycle as SMT components.

The technology inside
The technology that makes it possible
True 3D. Patented optical head.
A 25 MP telecentric top camera, four RGB projectors and multi-level RGBW lighting, with optional polarised and side cameras. Built for reflective metals, shadowed zones, tall connectors and fine pitch.
AI in the Inspection Cycle
It decides during the inspection cycle, not after it. Proprietary neural networks recognise and classify board features in real time, with FPGA processing keeping pace with the line.
Neith Software Platform
One browser-based software environment for programming, data and workflows, across every inspection stage and every Delvitech platform.
Programming and learning
AI Programming and Learning
Training Manager
Your team can train the neural networks directly on the platform, using your own boards and production images. The machine learns to recognise components beyond its initial training while preserving existing knowledge, allowing your team to adapt inspection independently and keep know-how in-house.
Self-programming
Accelerates component recognition and recipe creation, reducing the engineering effort required to bring a new product to stable inspection.
Coming Soon
Predictivity
Proactive process control through neural pattern prediction, recognising what precedes a defect before one occurs.
Coming Soon
Automated Validation Station
The system autonomously analyses components and defects, validates recurring calls and uses AI to optimise inspection parameters, verifying each change against a pass/fail reference set.
Where it fits
Horus MIDI is built for wider boards and dual-lane throughput in a compact line footprint, across automotive and EV, Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS), industrial and power electronics, aerospace and defence, medical devices, telecommunications, AI computing and data centres and consumer electronics, wherever several inspection stages run on one line and the team would rather learn one platform than three.

FAQ
Which inspection stages does Horus MIDI support?
It supports 3D solder paste inspection (SPI), pre-reflow AOI and post-reflow AOI on the same platform.
What board sizes and weights can the Single Lane configuration handle?
The Single Lane configuration supports boards up to 560 x 715 mm, 0.5 to 10 mm thick and up to 15 kg.
Can Horus MIDI inspect two boards at the same time?
Yes. The Dual Lane configuration uses two independent 340 mm lanes to inspect two boards in parallel. Each board can be up to 560 mm long and 15 kg.
Can Horus MIDI inspect both sides of a board?
Yes. The ITU configuration automatically flips the carrier to inspect the top and bottom of the board in sequence within the same system.
How can a team train the inspection system?
With Training Manager, the team can train neural networks on the platform using its own boards and production images, while preserving existing knowledge.
