MIRTEC to Demo TRMS Industry 4.0 Solution at IPC APEX EXPO 2019
January 7, 2019 | MirtecEstimated reading time: 1 minute
MIRTEC plans to exhibit in booth #2732 at the IPC APEX EXPO 2019, scheduled to take place January 29-31, 2019 at the San Diego Convention Center. The company has collaborated with Cogiscan on a fully integrated Industry 4.0 Solution. MIRTEC’s revolutionary Total Remote Management System (TRMS) displays data collected from MIRTEC’s award-winning AOI and SPI systems as well as all other equipment in the SMT manufacturing line.
The TRMS Module is a key part of MIRTEC’s Intelligent Factory Automation System (INTELLISYS). This powerful software suite was designed and developed by MIRTEC to provide manufacturers with a clear view into the manufacturing process, thereby helping them achieve higher operating efficiencies and improved quality.
“This successful integration marks a major milestone in the partnership between Cogiscan and MIRTEC to offer a fully integrated Industry 4.0 solution for MIRTEC’s entire range of Automated Inspection Systems and Intelligent Factory Automation Software,” stated Brian D’Amico, president of MIRTEC’s North American Sales and Service Division. The companies have collaborated on a demonstration of TRMS that shows how data flows from the Cogiscan Co-NECT middleware for various types of equipment to MIRTEC’s INTELLISYS Software platform. The presentation illustrates how Cogiscan can augment TRMS by enabling it to display both historical and real-time data collected from non-MIRTEC production equipment.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
