Hanul Semiconductor Localizes High-Speed Inspection System Capable of Processing 1,000 Components per Minute

Hanul Semiconductor announced on September 4 that it has developed a high-speed index-type inspection system capable of processing over 1,000 components per minute by applying its proprietary software and hardware technologies.

The company explained that this achievement surpasses the limitations of existing equipment, which could only handle around 650 components per minute. It added that this is significant because it has achieved localization in a market previously dependent on Japanese equipment and established a foundation for global expansion.

The index-type high-speed inspection system is designed for rapid inspection of various components, including automotive inductors, tantalum capacitors, and light-emitting diode (LED) packages. Hanul Semiconductor combined precision feeder technology, high-speed indexing technology, and a parallel AI inspection algorithm to achieve both high speed and accuracy. As a result, the company can now meet customer demands for improved productivity and quality, providing a solution optimized for mass production systems.

A company representative stated, "The development of this index-type high-speed inspection system is an example of achieving localization in a market dominated by Japanese equipment," adding, "We will further advance AI-based smart inspection technology to enhance our competitiveness in the global market and lay the groundwork for expanding exports."

Meanwhile, the company has also become the first in Korea to commercialize a high-speed external inspection system for 80-micrometer-class plated pins, which are thinner than a human hair, using AI machine vision technology. Plated pins are next-generation ultra-fine components that replace solder balls in connecting existing semiconductors and substrates to transmit electrical signals. They are expected to be recognized as key components for glass substrate wafers in the future.
