Koh Young is synonymous with innovative, pioneering technologies and its efforts to advance Industry 4.0 solutions further demonstrate its dedication. Recently, it has revealed smarter, faster technologies integrated with its AI-powered KSMART platform to help enable a smart factory.
From statistical process control with SPC@KSMART to instant program refinements with OPO@KSMART (Offline Programming Optimizer), Koh Young will discuss how its new AI Platform intelligently applies real-time data to improve the production process. Beyond its comprehensive KSMART factory solutions, KSMART Process Optimizer (KPO) focuses on the print process. “Comprised of multiple modules, KPO allows the Koh Young Solder Paste Inspection (SPI) system to adjust print process parameters by exercising complex machine-learning algorithms,” said Brent Fischthal, Sr Manager for Americas Marketing and Regional Sales at Koh Young America. “The KSMART software suite makes highly-regarded equipment even more powerful, while laying the foundation for a Smart Factory.”
Learn about how the latest Koh Young technologies can help manufacturers reduce factory and machine downtime and improve throughput and first pass yield at the eSMART Factory Conference where leading technologists and engineers present, discuss, and debate the future of Industry 4.0 technologies.
eSMART Factory will be held on May 24th, 2018 at the Plug ‘n Play Center in Sunnyvale, CA, USA. This inaugural event will bring together the key technologies shaping the electronics manufacturing industry and addressed by EMS companies, OEMs, and Contract Manufacturers. Emerging technologies such Artificial Intelligence (AI), Deep Learning (DL), and Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication will presented by leading thought leaders in our industry.
Global SMT & Packaging magazine and SMTA jointly organized the eSMART Factory conference. Global SMT & Packaging is an imprint of Trafalgar Publications and is the leading international electronics manufacturing publication with magazines, websites, newsletters, and video channels across Europe, Asia, and the Americas. SMTA (Surface Mount Technology Association) is the leading global trade association for engineers, scientists, and technologists in the field of electronics manufacturing.
We welcome conference attendees to visit our booth and understand why so many manufacturers turn to Koh Young to handle inspection challenges.

Driving Innovation: Direct Imaging vs. Conventional Exposure
07/01/2025 | Simon Khesin -- Column: Driving InnovationMy first camera used Kodak film. I even experimented with developing photos in the bathroom, though I usually dropped the film off at a Kodak center and received the prints two weeks later, only to discover that some images were out of focus or poorly framed. Today, every smartphone contains a high-quality camera capable of producing stunning images instantly.

Fresh PCB Concepts: Assembly Challenges with Micro Components and Standard Solder Mask Practices
06/26/2025 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsMicro components have redefined what is possible in PCB design. With package sizes like 01005 and 0201 becoming more common in high-density layouts, designers are now expected to pack more performance into smaller spaces than ever before. While these advancements support miniaturization and functionality, they introduce new assembly challenges, particularly with traditional solder mask and legend application processes.
Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.
