PARMI Sets New AOI Standard with AI Teaching, Wins 2025 Mexico Technology Award

San Diego, CA – September 2025 – PARMI USA, INC., a leader in advanced 3D inspection systems, has been named the winner of the 2025 Mexico Technology Award in the AI Technology category for its PARMI AI Teaching system. The award was presented during a ceremony held at SMTA Guadalajara 2025.

PARMI AI Teaching is a major advancement in automated optical inspection (AOI) setup, reducing model teaching time by over 90% compared to traditional methods while eliminating variability caused by operator skill differences. With just a single click, the system can create complete inspection models using only a physical PCB and BOM—no Gerber files required.

 

The technology’s advanced deep learning model, built from a proprietary dataset of nearly one million component examples, enables the AI to visually identify components the way a human operator would—recognizing their body, lead, and pad—without relying on a pre-existing component library. This segmentation, detection, and classification process automatically generates ROIs for inspection and supports a wide range of components from tiny chips to large connectors.

 

Key capabilities of PARMI AI Teaching include:

• One-Click Model Teaching: Complete teaching for all components—C-chips, R-chips, diodes, transistors, ICs, coils, capacitors, resistors, connectors, and more—in minutes.
• No Gerber File Requirement: Uses only physical PCBs and BOMs.
• Automatic OCR and Polarity Detection: Recognizes markings with over 95% accuracy.
• Non-Contact Fiducial & Barcode Recognition: Automatically identifies various fiducials and 1D/2D barcodes.
• Proven Time Savings: For example, a PCB with 579 components that previously required 1.5–2 hours of teaching can now be completed in just 13 minutes.

 

“AI Teaching takes the complexity and inconsistency out of AOI setup,” said Juan Arango, Head of Sales and Business Development at PARMI. “By dramatically reducing teaching time and improving accuracy, we’re helping manufacturers ramp up faster, improve quality, and get products to market more efficiently.”
