Supporting PCB Visual Inspection in High Mix – Low Volume Environments
In May 2025, Robovision visited Eurocircuits to learn more about their PCB production and see firsthand how vision AI integrates and scales in PCB manufacturing and assembly.
We were fortunate to document the collaboration and bring the story of using vision AI to manage innovation—and complexity—to life.
Vision AI That Grows With You
By partnering with Robovision, Eurocircuits was able to integrate an adaptive, scalable solution that keeps pace not only with increasing order volumes but also with the inherent variability of prototype manufacturing. The same AI that powered their first facility is now deployable across multiple sites, with minimal friction and no need to rewrite everything from scratch.
Built Around Your Process, Not the Other Way Around
Unlike traditional AOI machines that struggle with variability, Robovision allowed Eurocircuits to design inspection flows that fit their exact needs. Robovision works directly with their PIXpect workflow—leveraging already-captured visual data without overhauling existing infrastructure. No need for a clean slate deployment; it was a strategic augmentation of an already existing system. That flexibility—working with what is already in place rather than demanding a rip-and-replace—is where Robovision quietly outperforms much louder AI competitors.
AI With Industrial Discipline
AI in manufacturing often falters at the starting line due to brittle models, messy data, or the need for constant expert intervention. Robovision side-stepped these pitfalls by embedding collaborative tooling that lets Eurocircuits’ domain experts contribute directly to the model lifecycle—from labeling to validation. The result? A production-ready AI solution that doesn’t break when the board layout changes or when a new component appears. It doesn’t just scale in terms of volume or sites—it scales with real-world complexity.
