At our booth, visitors will learn about the latest inspection machines and smart factory offerings while discovering solutions designed to address the industry’s toughest challenges. Joel Scutchfield, General Manager of SMT Operations and Director of Sales at Koh Young America, extends an invitation to our booth, accessible at https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7171854393045164033/.

Scutchfield emphasizes, “This year, the Koh Young booth will showcase our commitment to advancing electronics inspection by integrating our award-winning solutions with AI-powered engines. From new hardware to enhanced software, we will feature the latest inspection machines for solder paste, components and joints, dispensed products, advanced packages, and even semiconductors. As a testament to our smart factory focus, our booth will include the ITW EAE (https://www.itweae.com) MPM Momentum II printer in our KPO Printer demonstration area. Additionally, we will showcase our connectivity to industry leaders like Panasonic Connect (https://na.panasonic.com/us/industries/manufacturing) in booth 2332 and ASYS Group (https://www.asys-group.com/en/) in booth 2414. Let us demonstrate how our data-driven approach can elevate your operation to new heights.”

Koh Young is revolutionizing process improvement for electronic manufacturers by harnessing the power of AI tools. Discover the benefits of tools like:

• Smart Review 3.0 to minimize false calls and prevent escapes, while reducing operator subjectivity
• Koh Young Auto Programming (KAP) to simplify programming and expedited production
• KPO Printer and KPO Mounter for real-time process optimization and automated correction

These are just a few examples of the advancements you can explore during the show.

This event will bring together industry leaders for an interactive panel discussion on the topic of workforce development, identifying key competencies for semiconductor technologies and PCB electronics. The panel will address essential skillsets required for the future workforce and actively shaping training and educational programs for academia: from STEM education to advanced degrees.

This collaborative session aims to bridge the gap between industry needs and educational initiatives, fostering a dynamic and skilled workforce poised for success in the rapidly evolving landscape of electronics.

The breakfast is free to attend and open to anyone interested in workforce development for electronics manufacturing, not only Ultra HDI Symposium attendees. Registration is included in symposium registration, or available individually here.

This event is co-sponsored by the City of Peoria. Additional sponsorship opportunities for the symposium are available here.

Discover Essemtec’s top three SMT- solutions below:

High-Speed Solder Paste Jetting – for all product platforms

Since 2019 Essemtec continuously improved the solder jetting process. More than 100 systems are worldwide in production. At Productronica a huge, improved solder jet speed of 180’000 – 400’000 dots/h will be presented. It is now possible to exchange inflexible solder screen printer with a P&P integrated solder jetting solution to serve up to 3 Pick and Place machines. SMEs solder jet products in All-in-One Systems or high-speed production integrate the system for process improvement capability.

Integrated Inspection System – for all product platforms

First time in the industry an Integrated Inspection System (I2S) in the Pick and Place and dispensing solutions is presented at Productronica.
The Integrated Inspection System is available for inspection of dispensed and jetted material as well as placed SMD components right after the process, to ensure only good, inspected products are entering the reflow ovens.
The process also includes an automated repair function.
The system is already integrated in automotive and complex production sites but also at KMUs which partially can avoid investing in expensive SPI and AOI systems.

Smart Material Management – integrated solution for factory 4.0

The affordable material management solution is a fully integrated end-to-end solution for electronics manufacturing factories and covers all different storage location. The solutions enable the right material to reach the right place at the right time. The traceability is precise down to individual component.
The solution is expandable and flexibly controlled by an intuitive eStorage software, from simple barcode-labelled storage location to fully automated storage cabinets and pick by LED. The solution offers high ROI and is fully integrated with the production machine and the ERP systems.
