Koh Young Highlighting Award-Winning True3D Inspection Solutions at SMTA Guadalajara Expo
August 12, 2024 | Koh YoungEstimated reading time: 3 minutes
Koh Young Technology, the industry leader in True 3D measurement-based inspection solutions, will deliver live demonstrations of its award-winning inspection machines and smart factory software during the SMTA Guadalajara Expo and Tech Forum in Jalisco, Mexico, on September 11-12, 2024. Additionally, Ramiro Mora, Applications Team Leader for Mexico and South America, will present his whitepaper on process capability analysis of solder paste printing.
KY8030-3 Industry’s Fastest True 3D SPI Solution with Integrated Auto-Repair Dispenser
We introduced the concept of 3D measurement-based solder paste inspection – and it revolutionized the inspection industry. Today, manufacturers recognize the value of 3D measurement data and use it to improve the print process, thereby enhancing production yield and quality. 3D SPI has become a standard requirement for SMT lines – it is no longer optional. The KY8030-3 is our SPI workhorse and the most popular SPI solution in the electronics manufacturing market. With patented dual-projection technology, we deliver trustworthy and repeatable measurement data, which manufacturers can use to reliably optimize the print process.
KPO Printer Award-winning AI-powered print process control software
The Koh Young Process Optimizer (KPO) solution is an AI-based automatic print process optimizer. This system improves the printer offset, as well as critical printer parameters like squeegee speed, print pressure, and separation speed. KPO performs an automated DOE to determine the optimum printing parameters for the best print quality. As a result, manufacturers can optimize the print process without the need for a dedicated print process expert. Furthermore, KPO monitors and perfects parameters in real-time to guarantee quality despite environmental changes.
Zenith Alpha Best Value True 3D Automated Optical Inspection Solution
The Koh Young AOI Zenith Series delivers perfect inspection performance with True 3D measurement technology. In the 2D inspection world, false calls and escapes are unavoidable. To solve this problem, we took a different approach. We based our solution on full 3D measurement technology, not on 2D technology and its inherent shortcomings or 2D with some 3D capabilities bolted on to help. At Koh Young, the Zenith measures all components in True 3D. We find the component body based on true 3D profilometric information. Using this approach, we provide trustworthy inspection results, regardless of component or board color variations. When our 3D measurement data meets artificial intelligence, we can deliver even more advantages to manufacturers.
Neptune C+ Award-winning True 3D In-Line Dispensing Process Inspection Solution
The award-winning Neptune is the industry’s first 3D optical measurement solution for transparent material inspection. Using Koh Young LIFT technology (Laser Interferometry for Fluid Tomography), the Neptune delivers non-destructive 3D inspection to precisely measure and inspect fluids – wet or dry. With its Machine-Learning algorithm, the Neptune accurately measures materials for coverage, thickness, and consistency with a user-defined threshold setting. It also identifies bubbles, cracks, and other defects in coating. It measures underfill, epoxy, bonding, glue, potting, flux, and more to deliver an exact measurement of transparent and translucent materials.
KY-P3 Best-in-class Measurement Accuracy and Inspection Reliability
Incomparable 3D Inspection Capability. The KY-P3 quickly and accurately measures pin height for presence, absence, offset, coplanarity, tip and shoulder height, absolute/relative critical distance measurement, fork pin separation, and spacing pitch. Built on its world-class True3D inspection technology, the KY-P3 Series breaks through barriers associated with inspecting products containing a mix of both SMDs and pins.
KSMART Smart Factory Software Suite Turns Data into Insights
AI-powered KSMART solutions help automate process control, focusing on data management, analysis, and optimization. It collects data from across the factory for defect detection, real-time optimization, enhanced decisions, and traceability to improve production, increase quality, and lower costs by eliminating false calls, and escapes.
To learn more about how our solutions boost your quality, visit us at the SMTA Guadalajara Expo & Tech Forum during September 11-12, 2024, at the EXPO Guadalajara in Jalisco, Mexico.
