From 3D AOI to CFX process line—live demonstrations at productronica The 3D AOI Arena celebrates its premiere at this year’s produc- tronica. In Hall A2, it will provide an overview of the market for 3D automated optical inspection. Among others, you will meet com- panies such as Cyberoptics, Om- ron, Viscom, and Yamaha at the special show, where they will pre- sent their solutions several times each day. Another premiere will take place in Hall A1. The IPC CFX process line shows the possibilities offered by standardized communication from machine to machine in elec- tronics manufacturing. The Smart Maintenance Pavilion in Hall B2 provides some insights into smart maintenance within the scope of a smart factory. The examples range from quality as- surance with deep learning to on- line monitoring of machines.

Equipped with virtual reality glasses, visi- tors enter a 3D-animated clean room and carry out various tasks.
