It’s not only about manual and automatic surface treatment. It’s about enabling users to solve or prevent problems, to run an efficient, high-quality operation, and to help them succeed. SKT has achieved this by developing easy-to-use solutions with Surface To DataTM in mind. These solutions deliver critical information in an actionable format allowing users to make better decisions. With optional analytics and machine learning, most decisions are made in real-time, automating manual tasks. This results in consistent quality, reduced cost, and a more competitive factory.
- Solutions that create simplicity
In hectic manufacturing environments operators, technicians, and management have many, varied responsibilities. SKT solutions can automate several manual profiling and surface treatment control tasks, alleviating a number of production line chores.
Our PCS (Power Control System) is a perfect example of how we create order from chaos. The surface treatment ultimate function is to create a robust surface tension for every product. Hundreds of thousands of data points are measured to generate this surface treatment profile. The PCS (Power Control System) reduces all the information down to a single number. Less than 100% and your process is in spec. Greater than 100% and your process in out of spec. Now anyone can instantly determine the acceptability of the profile.
- Award winning customer support
In the past 20 years, SKT has recruited a worldwide team of highly skilled customer support and application engineers to support onsite installations, provide both basic and advanced equipment and process training, and assist customers 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. This dedication to our valued customers has been recognized with 6 industry awards for excellence in service. With multiple field service engineers supporting each region, applications engineers, and sales admin support we have the capability of around the clock support and fast response onsite and over the phone when needed.
- Building for the future with the SKT ecosystem
SKT has a long history of industry firsts, starting from the first embedded systems with patented sensor technology and predictive software algorithms that have no equal. Further innovations include:
- Power monitoring
- Plasma concentration monitoring
- Motion safety monitoring
- MES connectivity for full traceability and process control
And the list goes on…
SKT has now extended this technology to the semiconductor field. SKT’s value lies not only in its single solution, but also in the fact that our solutions cover all areas of surface treatment processes, and you can expand and adapt SKT solutions to changing manufacturing needs. Combining our expertise in surface treatment processes, highly skilled field service, and application support, we provide comprehensive solutions for our clients.
The electronics manufacturing industry is entering a new era that requires the intelligent utilization of massive amounts of data to achieve flexible, efficient, and successful production operations. SKT is leading this trend, providing clients with an easy path to learning about “smart factories.” Entering this new era, you will find convenient solutions within the SKT intelligent surface treatment technology ecosystem—and you will reap the rich rewards of the future development of the electronics manufacturing industry sooner.
