Koh Young to Demo True 3D Inspection for a Smart Factory at SMTAI
September 25, 2018 | Koh Young AmericaEstimated reading time: 2 minutes

Koh Young America will highlight its industry-leading Full 3D inspection solutions and next-generation closed-loop KSMART process optimizer (KPO) at SMTA International on October 16-17 in Rosemont, Illinois. Conference attendees are cordially invited to visit booth 815 and learn how industry-leading 3D measurement systems and closed-loop process solutions from Koh Young Technology can help improve production throughput and yield.
If you are flying to the show, be sure to watch TalkBusiness 360 on the American Airlines inflight entertainment system. During the entire month of October, the segment will feature Koh Young as an "Industry Innovator," highlighting its KSMART Process Optimizer. The TalkBusiness channel will also feature Koh Young with streaming services from Apple TV, Roku, and Amazon Fire TV through December.
8030-3 3D SPI Solution
At the show, Koh Young America will demonstrate the industry’s fastest true 3D measurement and inspection solution. The 8030-3 Solder Paste Inspection (SPI) solution combines multi-projection moiré technology with Full 3D data-based process optimization and analytics to eliminate false calls and boost throughput. We will also highlight our flagship aSPIre3 with a feature set suitable for myriad challenges in demanding production environments in-line at booth 407 with Fuji America. These systems continue to raise the benchmark standards in the industry.
Zenith 3D AOI Solution
Several Koh Young Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) solutions will complement the revolutionary SPI equipment on display. Consisting of multiple models targeting different production needs, Koh Young will emphasize the Zenith platform – the world’s best-selling and first True 3D AOI platform. The hardware technology and measurement algorithms within the Zenith series work together to identify defect sources and provide accurate inspection of components, joints, and more, regardless of the model.
Smart Factory Solution
Koh Young is leading the effort to harness the power of connectivity and create a smart factory. For instance, its KSMART Process Optimizer (KPO), which is using Koh Young AI-powered machine learning, includes interlinking software modules that exercise complex algorithms to develop closed-loop process recommendations. The Machine-to-Machine (M2M) connectivity drives the smart factory vision one step further by enabling automatic SMT line adjustments. Finally, working with its printer and mounter partners, Koh Young has developed the connectivity tools to connect with multiple suppliers and simplify communication across the entire PCBA line. During the SMTA International technical conference on Thursday, 18October in the INS2 (Inspection 4.0) session, Koh Young will present the benefits of combining SPI and AOI measurement feedback with the inline printer and mounters for a revolutionary approach for Advanced Process Control (APC) that drives process improvements.
