Plymouth, WI — July 2018 — Kurtz Ersa Inc., a leading supplier of electronics production equipment, is pleased to announce that Applications Engineer, Joseph Clure recently presented on behalf of the company at the InnovationsFORUM – Mexico in Guadalajara.

The presentation, “Eliminating Failures with Innovative Technologies,” addressed the complex interplay between humans and AI in electronics manufacturing processes. Clure examined the influence of new technologies in the area of process optimization as well as the associated benefits. He discussed the path to achieving zero defects and operator independent quality by making machines more intelligent using advanced optical inspection technologies as a closed-loop feedback system in combination with a tighter control of all process variables.

“We are living in a world increasingly marked by digitalization and networking,” explains Clure. “This development also is filtering through into production areas previously shaped by the implicit expertise and experience of individual employees. The demand for reduced reliance on these leads to the deployment of new technologies. Assistance systems play a major role here, supporting production staff in their decision-making.”
