Looking to 2026, electronics manufacturers will face a familiar squeeze: tighter margins, higher quality expectations, smaller geometries, and fewer experienced hands on the line. The opportunity is not collecting more information, but converting trusted measurement data into decisions that keep production stable.

That is why our focus at Koh Young is AI built on true 3D measurement. Our KSMART ecosystem, including Smart Review, KAP (Auto Programming), and automated process optimization, is designed to turn inspection outputs into actionable insights.

When the data is dimensional and repeatable, AI can do practical work: detect drift early, define patterns across lines, guide consistent defect review, and shorten the heavy lift of new product introduction. In the field, these approaches reduce false calls, compress root cause analysis, and help teams spend less time firefighting and more time improving yield.

The Smart Factory path in 2026 will be pragmatic. Connect what you already have collected, create visibility, and then add automated optimization where it delivers immediate value. Engineers stay in control, supported by systems that learn, recommend, and increasingly self-correct. At Koh Young, our goal is to make that shift practical, with AI grounded in true 3D measurement and proven in real production environments.
