Happy’s Tech Talk #46: Data Management for AI and Automation
01/29/2026 | Happy Holden -- Column: Happy’s Tech TalkI am sure you have read about the importance of digitization and automation for the future of printed circuit fabrication. (If not, there are several excellent articles in the December 2025 edition of PCB007 Magazine). There are numerous pressures on fabricators today, including higher component density and pitches, every trace being a transmission line, the need for improved yields, and a skilled workforce shortage, with trained employees increasingly harder to find.
Smart Automation: When It’s Time to Replace SMT Equipment
12/10/2025 | Josh Casper -- Column: Smart AutomationPreventive maintenance is a foundation of a strong electronics manufacturing operation. It keeps production stable, ensures uptime, and protects a manufacturer’s investment. But even with the best maintenance programs, every machine reaches a point where reliability alone isn’t enough. The challenge isn’t whether your line can keep running; it’s knowing when it’s time to modernize.
Smart Automation: Pick-and-place Machines—What Matters in 2025
08/12/2025 | Josh Casper -- Column: Smart AutomationWhen people talk about placement technology, they often zero in on speed: How fast can a machine place components? What's the quoted components per hour (CPH)? How many nozzles are on the head? While these metrics matter, on most production floors, the fastest machine on paper isn’t always the most productive.
