Koh Young Presenting Benefits of APC with Feedback at SMTAI 2018
October 4, 2018 | Koh Young TechnologyEstimated reading time: 1 minute

David Suh, applications team leader at Koh Young Technology, will present the white paper "Combing Automated Advanced Process Control (APC) with Feedback to Revolutionize the Printed Circuit Board Assembly Process" at SMTA International 2018, to be held on October 14-18, 2018 at the Donald Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois.
During the INS2 (Inspection 4.0) session on October 18, 2018, Suh will discuss how 3D measurement systems with closed-loop advanced process control (APC) feedback can help manufacturers improve production throughput and yield by providing performance feedback to printers and mounters—a revolutionary approach to drive process improvements. Moreover, it will show how APC will identify a trend and implement corrections by using true 3D measurement data from the SPI or AOI system. While a smart factory will help resolve the skilled employee challenge, it will also revolutionize process optimization. Additionally, Koh Young will highlight its 8030-3 3D solder paste inspection (SPI) and Zenith 3D automatic optical inspection (AOI) systems during the expo. To discover all the Koh Young products and services, visit the company at Booth 815.
If you are flying to the show, be sure to watch TalkBusiness 360 on the American Airlines in-flight entertainment system. During the entire month of October, the segment will feature Koh Young as an "Industry Innovator", highlighting its KSMART Process Optimizer. TalkBusiness will also feature Koh Young on its channel with streaming services from Apple TV, Roku, and Amazon Fire TV through December.

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.
