Closing the Loop: Georgia Tech Researchers Develop New Data-driven Closed-loop control for stencil printers

Jul 26th, 2004 | By | Category: Electronics Manufacturing, In the News...

In electronics assembly, 60 to 70 percent of final defects occur during the stencil printing process (SPP), a stage of surface-mount technology for printed circuit board assembly. Researchers at Georgia Tech’s Center for Board Assembly Research (CBAR) have developed a new data-driven, closed-loop control technology that adjusts electronics assembly equipment parameters in real-time, resulting in […]
