October 13, 2023 | ArchEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Arch®, the leading provider of machine data and analytics for electronics assembly operations, will exhibit at the 2023 Productronica trade fair, scheduled to take place Nov. 14-17, 2023, in Munich, Germany. The company will showcase the ArchFX Platform in Hall 2 Booth #511.
The ArchFX Platform forms the foundation of Arch Systems' comprehensive solution, combining an array of direct-to-machine connectors, globally scalable data brokers, cloud-based analytics, and action monitoring capabilities.
At the show, Arch will provide demonstrations of ArchFX GLO™ and ArchFX Process Insights™. Collaboratively built by manufacturing and data experts, GLO unifies and analyzes global and local operations, offering actionable insights in an easy-to-use solution for everyone from global leaders to line operators. With Process Insights, Arch’s intelligent analytics suite, manufacturers can quickly identify and resolve operational inefficiencies across multiple lines, factories, and sites. This robust solution uses rich machine data and domain expertise, empowering electronics manufacturers to reclaim 20-60% of quality, performance, and line utilization losses.
Arch has built the largest collaboration of industry domain experts working hand-in-hand with data scientists to constantly map new signals from the noisy data, adding them to the ever-growing library of actionable insights.
These insights are changing how manufacturers tackle their most complex problems, allowing them to simplify and align actions from the shop floor to the top floor.

Smart Automation: The Power of Data Integration in Electronics Manufacturing
06/24/2025 | Josh Casper -- Column: Smart AutomationAs EMS companies adopt automation, machine data collection and integration are among the biggest challenges. It’s now commonplace for equipment to collect and output vast amounts of data, sometimes more than a manufacturer knows what to do with. While many OEM equipment vendors offer full-line solutions, most EMS companies still take a vendor-agnostic approach, selecting the equipment companies that best serve their needs rather than a single-vendor solution.

Breaking Silos with Intelligence: Connectivity of Component-level Data Across the SMT Line
06/09/2025 | Dr. Eyal Weiss, CybordAs the complexity and demands of electronics manufacturing continue to rise, the smart factory is no longer a distant vision; it has become a necessity. While machine connectivity and line-level data integration have gained traction in recent years, one of the most overlooked opportunities lies in the component itself. Specifically, in the data captured just milliseconds before a component is placed onto the PCB, which often goes unexamined and is permanently lost once reflow begins.
