Koh Young Europe First to Present Full Range Product Line
November 7, 2019 | Koh Young TechnologyEstimated reading time: 2 minutes

Over the past years Koh Young Technology’s drive to not only satisfy but to exceed our customers’ expectations lead to further innovations and a wider range of product portfolio. For the first time visitors of the productronica show can experience Koh Young’s newest and full range product line. From front to back-end production Koh Young will show a wide range of not only SPI and AOI, but also machining optical inspection (MOI), automated pin and terminal inspection (API), and more. Koh Young, the leading 3D measurement-based inspection solutions provider, is delivering also in this year’s productronica new levels of inspection capabilities.
In addition to delivering innovative hardware, Koh Young will also present the true Smart Factory solution. Utilizing the precise 3D-Measurement data to visualize and analyze any step in the production process, the KSMART Smart Factory solution can close the gap between M2M (machine-to-machine) communication on SMT machines.
If you want to experience the blazing trail for advanced optical inspection systems, you can take the opportunity to see our flagship the Zenith 2 Side Camera system at our booth 377 in Hall 2. Our Zenith 2 is here to fulfill the future of AOI delivering best-in-class performance, functionality, and accessibility with a wide range of inspection capabilities.
Having AI-driven auto programming software it is highly efficient and reduces programming time by 70%. Equipped with side cameras Koh Young’s Zenith 2 allows to quickly detect and analyse defects on a wide range of mounted components and chips. Not only at our booth but also the 3D AOI Arena in Hall A2 you can experience our next generation AOI. The 3D AOI Arena offers you the opportunity to convince yourself from the performance of our Zenith 2 directly in comparison to other AOI manufacturers.
At this year’s productronica Koh Young presents its strength not only in SMT but also front-end and back-end markets. With the award-wining KY-P3 API models KYT designed a solution for SPF (single-press-fit), C-PFT (conventional press-fit), and FOI (final optical inspection) using its expertise with highly reliable 3D measurement innovations. It identifies defects like missing pins or pin offset, as well as co-planarity and position by accurately measuring the pin-to-pin pitch. The KY-P3 helps manufacturers ensure maximum alignment accuracy, which is essential in producing high-quality PCBs.
Further innovations like our Meister series which provide automated inspection solutions for OSAT (outsourced semiconductor assembly and test) companies, device manufacturers, and foundries offering high level of productivity, accuracy and UPH (unit per hour) with cost efficiency, will be exhibited in Munich.
Not only with innovation in hardware but especially through innovative software we excel. With quality control capabilities and a full lineup of integrated inspection systems, KSMART ties everything together: SPI, AOI and production machines with AI powered production analysis for fully automated control that boosts productivity while minimizing costs in real time. Together with our partners Ekra, MPM, and ASM, we will also demonstrate and show live how KPO can optimize the printing process.
Meet the absolute leader in the SPI and AOI markets on Hall 2 booth 377 and experience next generation inspection systems.
