Koh Young Technology, the global leader in True3D measurement-based inspection and smart AI solutions, will strengthen its engagement with electronics manufacturers across North America through consecutive appearances at two SMTA regional events this August. The company will exhibit at the SMTA Michigan Expo & Tech Forum on Tuesday, August 18, in Livonia, Michigan, followed by the SMTA Chihuahua Expo & Tech Forum on Thursday, August 20, in Chihuahua, Mexico.
These back-to-back events reflect Koh Young’s continued commitment to supporting manufacturers throughout North America by providing opportunities to discuss process challenges, explore emerging inspection technologies, and demonstrate how trusted measurement data, artificial intelligence, and connected software can improve production performance.
“Regional SMTA events provide an outstanding opportunity to engage directly with engineers, manufacturing leaders, and quality professionals,” said David Nemeth, Regional Sales Manager for Koh Young America. “Manufacturers are looking for more than defect detection. They want actionable insights that improve quality, increase productivity, and help optimize their processes. Our smart AI solutions transform trusted measurement data into better production decisions.”
Visitors to both events will discover how Koh Young’s smart AI solutions combine industry-leading True3D measurement technology, artificial intelligence, and connected software to optimize inspection processes throughout the SMT line. Featured solutions include KPO, which transforms inspection data into actionable process intelligence for printers and mounters, KAP Auto Programming, which significantly reduces programming time through AI-assisted inspection creation, and Smart Review, which improves review consistency and efficiency by applying artificial intelligence to defect classification. Together, these solutions help manufacturers reduce engineering effort, identify process variation earlier, and create a more connected manufacturing environment.
SMTA Michigan Expo & Tech Forum
Serving one of North America’s most established manufacturing regions, the SMTA Michigan Expo brings together professionals from the automotive, industrial, aerospace, medical, and high-reliability electronics industries. Koh Young representatives will discuss the company’s latest solder paste inspection (SPI), automated optical inspection (AOI), and Smart AI software solutions that help manufacturers move beyond defect detection toward proactive process optimization and data-driven manufacturing decisions.
SMTA Chihuahua Expo & Tech Forum
Immediately following the Michigan event, Koh Young will participate in the SMTA Chihuahua Expo, supporting one of North America’s fastest-growing electronics manufacturing regions. As manufacturers continue to expand production throughout northern Mexico, attendees will have the opportunity to learn how Koh Young’s inspection and smart AI solutions help improve quality, increase manufacturing efficiency, and support digital transformation initiatives across the factory floor.
Supporting North American Manufacturers
As electronics manufacturers continue to face increasing product complexity, tighter quality requirements, and growing pressure to improve productivity, inspection systems are evolving from standalone quality tools into connected sources of manufacturing intelligence. Koh Young’s smart AI solutions leverage trusted True3D measurement data, artificial intelligence, and connected software to help manufacturers reduce process variation, accelerate programming, improve defect review consistency, and make faster, more informed production decisions.
Solutions such as KPO extend the value of inspection beyond quality control by connecting SPI and AOI measurement data with printer and mounter processes, enabling manufacturers to identify trends, optimize production, and improve line performance through data-driven decision-making.
By participating in regional SMTA events across North America, Koh Young continues to invest in supporting manufacturers where they operate, providing direct access to technical expertise, application knowledge, and the latest innovations in inspection and process optimization.
Whether attending the SMTA Michigan Expo & Tech Forum or the SMTA Chihuahua Expo & Tech Forum, visitors are invited to meet with the Koh Young team to discuss their manufacturing challenges and discover how smart AI solutions can help improve quality, productivity, and operational performance throughout the electronics manufacturing process.
