Hanwha Semiconductor announced on the 19th that it will participate in the IPC APEX EXPO 2025 exhibition held at the Anaheim Convention Center in California, USA from the 18th to the 20th (local time).
IPC APEX EXPO is the largest surface-mount technology (SMT) exhibition in North America, and is a major industry exhibition where approximately 400 manufacturers from around the world exhibit their equipment and approximately 30,000 visitors visit every year. Surface mounting refers to the process of automatically mounting electronic components on the surface of an electronic circuit board (PCB).
Hanwha Semiconductor, which developed SMT technology for the first time in Korea and has been manufacturing and selling chip mounters for 36 years, attracted the attention of visitors by presenting a comprehensive lineup that can flexibly respond to customers' needs.
The XM520, which is suitable for mass production of multiple varieties, the HM520, which is optimized for mass production lines of small varieties, and the HM520W were also introduced to the visitors. The HM520W has a wide range of capabilities, from odd-shaped components to ultra-large substrates.
The XM520 is a general-purpose high-speed chip mounter capable of mounting 100,000 electronic component chips per hour. Its high-precision control system enables fast and accurate mounting of not only ultra-small components but also odd-shaped components. In recognition of its excellence, it was first unveiled at the 24-year IPC APEX exhibition, and was awarded the NPI (New Product Introduction) Award in the SMT equipment high-speed machine category by Circuits Assembly, a specialized magazine for electronic components and manufacturing technology.
In addition to SMT equipment, 'T-Solution', an integrated software solution for maximizing the operational efficiency of production lines from optimal production planning to material management and monitoring, also attracted attention.
The T-OLP, which can establish production plans and manage history, T-Smart, which can remotely manage production facilities using portable devices such as smartphones and tablets, and T-PNP, which predicts and informs of equipment maintenance periods based on big data, were displayed in video to increase visitors' understanding.
Kang Tae-woo, head of Hanwha Semiconductor America, said, “In line with our vision of becoming an ‘Advanced Manufacturing Solution Creator,’ we will support customers in the American market to efficiently and stably produce products,” and “We will become a leading company in the SMT market.”
Meanwhile, Hanwha Semitec will begin its exhibition in the US in March, and will participate in SSPA (Smart SMT & PCB Assembly) held in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province from April 2 to 4, and NEPCON China held in Shanghai, China from April 22 to 24. Through participation in domestic and international exhibitions, the company plans to increase contact points with customers and promote the excellence of domestic manufacturing equipment technology to the world.
