from kiting, to offline job setup, to online verification and low-level warnings. For customers in the high-reliability sector, the optional traceability module is a must. It al- lows customers to know precisely which lots of components were used to assemble a specific board, down to the reference designator level. IFS-X2 also represents a com-
petitive edge for Juki against other placement machines. It is the only intelligent feeder system that can be
is now selling more than just place- ment machines, they wanted to offer a similar level of material and process control software for equip- ment like screen printers, reflow ovens and selective soldering. It re- lies on Cogiscan to provide modular and scalable TTC software that can be deployed as a standalone solu- tion, or integrated with factory-level systems. The Juki TTC software was successful when it was introduced the IPC APEX EXPO 2012. TTC systems are strategically important for electronics assemblers.

retrofitted back to any vintage ma- chine and feeder. The contactless RFID technolo-
gy is more reliable and requires no maintenance, thus contributing to the lowest cost of ownership offered by Juki. The RFID feeders are intel- ligent both on and off the machine, even when they are loaded on stor- age carts. The IFS-X2 software also is dif-
ferent in the fact that other equip- ment vendors’ software typically is limited to a specific machine brand and/or model. Because IFS-X2 is based on Cogiscan TTC software, it can be expanded to any other plat- form, providing a unified GUI and a common database for multi-vendor lines, including manual placement and any other manufacturing process such as AOI, ICT, final as- sembly, functional test, rework, con- formal coating and final pack-out. The Juki TTC software is a nat- ural extension of IFS-X2. Since Juki
This recent product introduction is a significant milestone for Juki and Co- giscan, and is seen as a leading indus- try solution. By joining forces in the past, Juki and Cogiscan developed better solutions for their customers and, as a result, both companies en- joyed growing success. The same recipe that was
proven for placement machines now is expanding to the next level: to the rest of the SMT line and beyond. By building its product and business de- velopment strategy on solid partner- ships, Juki can offer better solutions — faster and at lower costs — ulti- mately delivering the highest value to its customers that, in turn, can help it become more successful in its own business.
