In addition to bringing several of its industry-leading True3D™ measurement-based inspection solutions to SMTA International for live demonstrations, Koh Young, the premier show and expo sponsor, is excited to announce Ivan Aduna, Global MES Manager will present a paper about how AI-powered tools can support real-time process control. During the technical conference on Wednesday, 11 October at 11:00am Ivan will present his paper in the “AI and Machine Learning” session in room 202 A/B.
“Today, components are shrinking, and processes are more complex. Yet, manufacturers are striving for fully automated production. Using AI, they have a solution,” said Ivan Aduna, Global MES Manager at Koh Young. “AI simulates human behavior and decisions. In the past, it needed super computers, but today we have new possibilities for AI. Whereas some engineers would make quick decisions based on past experiences, AI is based on data. It mimics the human decision process in seconds, while considering large data piles. The paper explores AI application advantages in an SMT line.”
Ivan leads the smart factory integration efforts for the Koh Young America. His expertise mixed with theoretical and practical knowledge positions him with the ability to understand, adopt, and implement software advancements from both the user and supplier perspectives. This session is surely to provide some valuable insights with practical insights.
For example, AI-powered KSMART solutions help automate process control, while 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. KSMART helps manufacturers eliminate variances, false calls, and escapes. In short, the award-winning KSMART software suite seamlessly turns data into insight.
Another instance is the award-winning Koh Young Process Optimizer (KPO) solution, which 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.
