Why AOI, SPI, and Test Data Still Don’t Improve SMT FPY (and What Engineers Can Do About It)
SMT Quality • FPY • Root Cause Analysis Why AOI, SPI, and Test Data Still Don’t Improve SMT FPY (and what to do about it) Many SMT teams have more inspection and test data than ever — yet FPY plateaus and investigations stay slow. The…
How AI Defect Detection Is Transforming Manufacturing Quality
AI defect detection in manufacturing with real-time analytics. AI defect detection in manufacturing helps teams spot quality issues earlier, reduce scrap and rework, and improve First Pass Yield—turning hidden COPQ into measurable ROI. This guide explains how it works, what to track, and how to…
How to Calculate ROI in Manufacturing (and Where You’re Losing Money)
Manufacturers across electronics, medical devices, automotive, and industrial sectors share a common challenge: unseen losses from rework, scrap, and customer returns. These hidden costs quietly erode margins. This guide explains how to calculate manufacturing ROI, what drives the Cost of Poor Quality (COPQ), and how…
Preventing recalls in electronics manufacturing with artificial intelligence
The demand for electronic products is growing exponentially. From microchips in computers and smartphones, automotive manufacturers also rely on components manufactured by electronics manufacturers, which are challenged by rising global competition and an increasing need to provide high-quality components. The electronics manufacturing industry has long…
How to improve quality and efficiency in your production line using Quality control software for manufacturing
Quality control is the process that ensures customers receive products that are free of defects and meet their needs. Quality control that is performed incorrectly puts consumers at risk. Effective quality control in manufacturing can prevent major recalls. Quality control tools that are commonly used…
