Koh Young, the industry leader in True3D measurement-based inspection solutions, is excited to announce Factory Insights, the latest offering from Cogiscan, will be demonstrated alongside KSMART in Koh Young booth 2112 during IPC APEX Expo. Cogiscan has built the new fully customizable factory data platform for the unique needs of circuit board assembly and complex manufacturing ecosystems. Leveraging over 25 years of data expertise with an open architecture design to standardize, analyze, and transform manufacturing data into strategic action.
A customizable factory data platform designed for circuit board assembly and complex manufacturing is crucial for electronics manufacturers. It optimizes efficiency, enables real-time monitoring, facilitates data-driven decision-making, ensures scalability and adaptability, supports quality assurance and compliance, and provides visibility into the supply chain. Overall, it empowers manufacturers to streamline operations, improve productivity, and stay competitive in a rapidly evolving industry.
For Koh Young users specifically, Factory Insights allows them to easily collect, calculate, and visualize analytics data for other brands of machines in use on their floor. Additionally, the new software platform easily integrates with the KSMART software suite to help enrich production data across the entire operation. From site-level OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) to machine drill downs, manufacturers can easily find trends and analyze consolidated real-time and historical data to improve operations. Specifically for Koh Young, Factory Insights allows customers to gather and visualize analytics data from various equipment suppliers on the production line. With its fully customizable design, manufacturers have the flexibility to build specific KPI calculations, create unique dashboards, and seamlessly share calculated metrics with other machine platforms.
If you are attending the IPC APEX Expo show in California from April 9-11, 2024, at the Anaheim Convention Center, visit the Koh Young booth 2112 or Cogiscan booth 1445 for a live demonstration of Factory Insights.

Nolan’s Notes: Coming to Terms With AI
05/07/2024 | Nolan Johnson -- Column: Nolan's NotesHow fast do things move in the world of data analytics? Here’s an example. We’ve been planning this issue on artificial intelligence for the past few months, and, in fact, I had already written this column about a month ago. Then I went to IPC APEX EXPO and upended it all. I originally had compared AI to drag racing in that (CPU) horsepower and new (data) vehicles have steadily delivered higher performance competition. That seemed pretty accurate given how generative AI models dominated the popular media with amazing results—and sometimes spectacular crashes.
