Altus is helping this innovative process by supplying equipment that works to the SMART ideal. One example of this is Koh Young’s Ksmart Solution, which achieves fully automated real-time process control so it can comfortably sit within a SMART factory setting.


Ksmart Solution is a new software that works with technologies that have 3D AOI and SPI capabilities. It incorporates an ‘Intelligent Platform’ that ensures the highest level of connectivity for all the inspection stations, enhancing overall automation capability.

It is also extremely flexible, allowing connection to all the inspection machines (AOI, SPI, peripheral) in any given SMT line and has the capacity to collect and analyse measurement data from the SMT process.

The software also allows manufacturers to trace the root cause of defects and process deviation by carrying out essential analyses of reliable full 3D board data. All this detail makes the software solution an essential technology in helping to move manufacturing towards the Industry 4.0 ideal.
