First Article Inspection
Making First Article Inspection Easy 
First Article Inspection
Anchor 1

The Cluso Automated Production Engineering (APE) system is the first production tool to provide cost-effective, 100% inspection of first article boards without time-consuming programming. This unique system combines existing CAD, BOM and pick and place mount data with a high resolution scanned image of the board to ensure first article assemblies and documentation are accurate before entering production. Production personnel can simply step through each part to ensure the proper part, orientation and placement location are achieved. A typical board can be inspected in less than 30 minutes, greatly reducing production down time and eliminating downstream defects.

Cluso Benefits:

Greatly reduces time to 100% inspect PCB

Easy to use, requires little training

Utilizes existing CAD and BOM files

Virtually eliminates production defects due to

placement errors

Reduces placement machine idle time

Creates archive/traceability reports and files

Offers RAPID RETURN ON INVESTMENT  often in weeks or months, not years.

CLUSO FAI

WHAT IS CLUSO

Cluso is a production engineering, quality assurance and set up tool

  • Cluso is the first system that integrates and automates several functions normally covered by three functional areas. And, it does so in a cost-effective, systematic, and mistake-free manner.

  • Cluso is extremely easy to use and requires virtually no setup or maintenance, and no programming.

  • Cluso is a cost reduction tool.

WHAT CLUSO IS NOT!

  • Cluso is not an AOI machine.

  • Cluso is a set-up tool, not an online, production inspection system (although it works quite well as an inspection sampling tool!)

  • Cluso is not a high-dollar piece of capital equipment that will take years to show payback.

Culso is a First article inspection machine designed by manufactures for manufactures.

First Article Inspection Chart

This graph represents actual data obtained at a Major CEM in Sydney, Australia. The first PCB inspected was performed manually. The second was inspected using the Cluso system. The third was using the Cluso system and sample data within the Cluso system, this would represent a subsequent run inspection at a user that has the Cluso system.
