Koh Young America and Panasonic join with Assembly Products for a Print Process Characterization Workshop

10.01.2019 – Atlanta – During a two-day technical workshop in New England, Koh Young America will discuss the important role of solder paste inspection (SPI) to understand and then optimize the solder paste print process to improve printed circuit board assembly production yield. Additionally, Panasonic will discuss how the proven connectivity between its printers and mounters and the Koh Young SPI and Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) equipment will benefit manufacturers with Advanced Process Control (APC). The 2-day Print Process Characterization workshop is scheduled for 23-24 October 2019 at the Westford Regency with live machine demonstrations at the Assembly Products Lab in Chelmsford, MA.

How SPI worksAssembly Products is using two industry-respected engineers from Koh Young and Panasonic to lead the workshop. Mr. Ray Welch is a Sr. Applications Engineer at Koh Young America who focuses on helping customers enhance the effectiveness of their use of SPI to characterize and optimize the paste printing process. He will be presenting material to help the workshop participants advance their understanding of SPI. Moving beyond its use as a “Go” or “No Go” inspection system through tools and techniques for detailed SPI data analysis. He will show how Print Process Characterization can be used to fully optimize the process.

Mr. Doug Africano is a Solutions Engineer in the Process Automation division of Panasonic Systems Solution Company of North America. He supervises the Panasonic Cloud9 Technology Center in Buffalo Grove, Illinois where he helps showcase total solution offerings from Panasonic and its partners, including Koh Young. He will share details about the Panasonic Adaptive Process Control (APC) technology, which is integrated with the SPI and AOI systems from Koh Young.
