IPC APEX South China Focused on Building the Smart Factory


Hong Kong — Since the world’s first unmanned factory was created in Japan 30 years ago, automation has become a driving force in many industries worldwide. PCB factories

hold appliances, medical devices, light bulbs, and electrical distribu- tion equipment. This year’s show includes nine suppliers of the latest technology for leak testing.


Helping Asthma Patients Breathe About 8 percent of the U.S. pop-


ulation suffers from asthma. Inhalers for asthma must be assembled care- fully, consistently and hygienically. The only way to meet the require- ments for both volume and precision is through high-speed automated assembly systems, such as those on display.


One of these automated assem-


bly integrators, Mikron Automation, is showcasing its G05 linear assem- bly cell. Multiple cells can be linked together, and all components are designed for speeds up to 100 cycles per minute. Contact: BNP Media, 2401 W

SEMI 3D Summit...


Continued from previous page In the past few years, the


increasing use of 3D technology in microelectronics devices has reshaped the electronics market. Like previous summits, SEMI will highlight the lat- est business challenges and opportu- nities in the 3D sector with a market briefing, where attendees will hear 3D and packaging industry experts dis- cuss business and market insights and reverse engineering analysis. Up to 30 companies working in


3D IC and advanced packaging will have the opportunity to exhibit their technologies and solutions at the exhibition. Located adjacent to the conference auditorium, the exhibi- tion will be a high-traffic hall giving exhibitors many opportunities to interact with potential customers and manufacturers. SEMI will also arrange for atten-


dees to visit the MINATEC showroom, near the conference amphitheater, for a preview of the latest innovations currently in development within the Grenoble tech hub. The European 3D Summit steering committee includes executives from: ams AG, BESI, CEA- Leti, Evatech, EV Group, Fraunhofer- IZM, Globalfoundries, imec, Scint-X, SPTS, STMicroelectronics and SUSS Microtec.

in China cannot lag behind. The 2016 IPC & APEX South China Fair, held December 7-9, at the Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center in Shenzhen, China, will be focused on building smarter factories to shorten production cycles and speed up prod- uct delivery. With the rapid development of


computer and communications tech- nology, higher demand for flexibility and more personalized products has become a challenge that the manu- facturing industry needs to address. Manufacturers should be able to respond quickly to customization


requests without incurring much higher production costs. Balancing efficiency, cost and customization is no easy task. The exhibition is designed to


cover the entire supply chain of PCB and electronic assembly products and solutions. In addition, the “Smart Automation Pavilion,” returns to the show this year, which showcases up- to-date automation equipment, tech- nologies and solutions created to facil- itate smart production, reduce the cost of labor and spur the adoption of Industry 4.0. Today’s supply chains are more


closely linked and can communicate quickly through the Internet, allow- ing personalized products to be put quickly into mass production. In the factory, manufacturers can do much to improve production by including the latest types of mechanical arms and digital processing such as laser drilling, laser direct imaging, inkjet printing, and flying probe testing for film- and fixture-free processes.
