Sep 10, 2020 | Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a buzzword often used with business and industrial technologies. Recently, it has demonstrated promising potential across a variety of industries – from self-driving cars to virtual doctors – all of which, though, have been limited exclusively for people. AI, however, has far-reaching applications within the manufacturing sector. By combing the right AI technologies, manufacturers can boost efficiency, improve
flexibility, and even achieve self-optimizing processes. Printed circuit board assembly is no exception. Complementing the machine communication standards by industry associations, equipment providers like Koh Young are enabling the smart factory by adopting AI to generate "knowledge" from "experience."
