Koh Young America is sharing its insights about the Smart Factory in an online seminar scheduled at 10:45am EST on 12 May 2020 in a panel focused on the progress electronics manufacturers have made to implement a smart factory. Leveraging his background in mechatronics, embedded systems, and software development, Ivan Aduna will highlight how has been helping Koh Young customers adopt smart factory solutions. His perspective from theoretical and applied use cases positions him with the ability to understand, adapt, and implement software advancements across the printed circuit board assembly industry.
As the recognized leader in electronics measurement and inspection, Koh Young continues to expand its capabilities to solve industry challenges and improve the measurement industry, including smart factory technologies. “Koh Young passionately believes in the power of a Smart Factory and is focused on its adoption by electronics manufacturers – both big and small. The cost, time, and quality benefits to manufacturers and customers alike underpin the value of the smart factory. We are excited to discuss the gateway that can help companies transition to a smart factory concept,” commented Brent A. Fischthal, Sr. Marketing Manager for Koh Young America. In fact, Koh Young was named one of the 10 Most Innovative Smart Factory Solution Providers to Watch and earned a position in the “Headlines 500” list of the fastest-growing U.S. companies.
We encourage electronics manufacturers to register for the online webinar at GlobalSMT.com. Besides the Smart Factory session, the web series includes several other topical sessions with practical implications for electronics manufacturers. The webinar series includes:
- 05 May 2020 – Coronavirus & Supply Chain Disruptions: COVID-19 has severely disrupted the supply chain and affected every facet of our lives. How will the electronics industry mitigate future risk?
- 12 May 2020 – How Far have you Really Progressed Towards a Smart Factory? Despite the papers written about the transition to a smart factory, the industry actual implementation has been limited. The panel – featuring Ivan Aduna from Koh Young – will discuss some execution strategies and groundwork for companies of any size.
- 19 May 2020 – Automation & Energy Conservation in the Reflow Process: Due to electrical and sometimes nitrogen costs, ovens are an expensive production tool to run, so what is underway to conserve energy?
- 26 May 2020 – Robotic Soldering: When does it make Sense? Manufacturers should weigh robotic soldering advantages against disadvantages, and this panel will discuss the various aspects.
- 02 June 2020 – Recent Advances in Low-Temp Solders: Suppliers developed low-temp solders for specific applications, but the increased reliability and reduced board stress is appealing to other applications.
- 09 June 2020 – Cleaning and Surface Preparation: Reduced geometries and higher density are driving the increased need for cleaning and surface preparation more important and this panel will discuss options.
