About this event
Artificial intelligence continues to make headlines globally, with the new challengers causing tumbling stock market values and producing wild claims regarding learning efficiency. With the technology arms race relying on ever-more advanced chips, how can we use AI to produce the very chips that power these technologies?
One example poised to make a significant impact on the production line is Digital Twin technology. By utilizing real-time data, machine learning, and trained reasoning to aid decision-making, the next generation of virtual machines will help manufacturers optimize processes on the go, allocate resources more efficiently, and adapt to new product introductions even faster. AI is also being integrated at the end of the production line, enhancing defect detection by combining with technologies such as 3D X-ray to predict and prevent production issues before they arise.
Join us for a 3D InCites Webinar, sponsored by Comet Yxlon and Dragonfly, and moderated by Françoise von Trapp, to explore how AI is being used to revolutionize semiconductor manufacturing, with an emphasis on the importance of advanced packaging processes to enhance chip performance and reliability.
We are thrilled to host guest speakers, Isabella Drolz from Comet, Chan Pin Chong from Kulicke & Soffa, and John Bhenke from Inficon for an enlightening discussion on how this transformative technology will reshape the industry. They will share insights on digital twins for capital equipment, adapting to Industry 4.0, and AI powered defect-detection in semiconductor advanced packaging.
