Koh Young America to Highlight New Inspection Developments at SMTA International
September 27, 2021 | Koh Young AmericaEstimated reading time: 3 minutes
During the past year, the Koh Young development efforts continued unabated, and Koh Young America is eager to highlight a selection of its latest developments to the reliability experts, process engineers, executives, project managers, designers, and technologists attending SMTA International to help shape the future of the electronics assembly industry. The event will be held November 1-4, 2021 at the Minneapolis Convention Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota and is co-located with Medical Design & Manufacturing (MD&M) to bring together one of the largest audiences of engineering and manufacturing professionals in the Midwest.
During the expo on 3-4 November, Koh Young America will highlight some of its latest offers in booth 3319 to the 6,000-plus anticipated attendees visiting the six co-located design and manufacturing shows. As the Premiere Sponsor for SMTA International, Koh Young America is excited to reconnect and collaborate in-person, while ensuring COVID safety protocols are implemented and upheld for your health and ours.
During the show, we will highlight several of our award-winning True3D™ measurement-based solutions to help you solve electronics assembly challenges:
1. Neptune C+: Industry’s first True3D In-Line Dispense Process Inspection (DPI) Solution
- The industry’s first 3D in-line DPI and thickness measurement solution for transparent material inspection. The system uses our patented L.I.F.T. technology for non-destructive inspection to accurately measure for coverage, thickness, and consistency of fluids that are wet or dry. It allows manufacturers to explore its process depths to accurately identify defects using 2D, 3D, and cross-section views.
2. Zenith 2: True3D Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) with Incomparable Capabilities
- The Zenith 2 is blazing a new path by combining our advanced vision algorithms with innovative high-resolution optics, side cameras, AI-powered analysis, and self-diagnosis for best-in-class performance, functionality, and repeatability for electronic assembly manufacturers focused on repeatable performance according to the IPC-610 standards for acceptability.
- Koh Young Auto Programming (KAP) software will also be featured on the Zenith 2. KAP reduces the programming process and minimizes time to production, while reducing costs. Our 3D profilometry technology converges with our proprietary AI technology to deliver true automatic programming.
3. Koh Young Printer Optimizer (KPO): AI-Powered solution for Ultimate Print Process Consistency
- Koh Young is driven to help customers achieve a zero-defect scenario. The AI-powered KPO Printer solution automatically exercises complex algorithms to develop and implement process improvements. By actively monitoring the print process, KPO sends operators real-time performance diagnostics and threshold alerts – it even implements process change automatically. KPO ensures real-time print process reliability without dedicated experts.
4. KSMART Solutions: True Smart Factory Solution that Turns Data into Insights
- The AI-powered KSMART Smart Factory software suite represent a revolution in process optimization to ensure the highest standards of quality and reliability on the factory line. KSMART helps automate process controls, while focusing on data management, analysis, and optimization. It collects data from across the factory for defect detection, real-time optimization, enhanced decisions, and traceability to improve metrics, increase quality, and lower costs by eliminating variances, false calls, and escapes.

Flexible Thinking: Mind-tapping into January
02/05/2025 | Joe Fjelstad -- Column: Flexible ThinkingIt’s January again, and our beleaguered planet has completed yet another trip around the sun. The Romans named January in honor of their god Janus, who is usually depicted as a bearded old man with two faces—one looking back to the past and the other looking forward to the future. People venerated Janus as the god of beginnings and endings, transitions, and the passage of time. With that in mind, I’ll look 10 years into the future—hopefully with a bit of inspiration from Janus—and prognosticate what might be happening in electronic design.
